A scathing new report on racism in the Canadian Armed Forces says the military is not doing enough to detect and prevent white supremacists and other…
The report, released Monday by Defence Minister Anita Anand, also takes the military to task for not acting on dozens of previous studies and reviews on racism in the ranks over the past two decades.
The panel in its report describes the suspected presence of extremists in the military as a “pressing moral, social and operational issue,” with such members representing a threat to unit cohesion and Canadians’ trust in the institution. Anand said Monday the government has earmarked more than $200 million to help change the military’s culture, but she did not lay out any specific new measures.
The issue of right-wing extremism in the Canadian military first burst into the public domain in 2017 following an incident in Halifax in which a group of sailors associated with the Proud Boys disrupted an Indigenous ceremony.
