The major-general leading Canada’s vaccine logistics at the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) is stepping down under the cloud of a military investigation into a sexual misconduct allegation.
The Department of National Defence issued a terse three-line statement late Friday, saying that Maj.-Gen. Dany Fortin is leaving his post and his future will be decided by the acting chief of the defence staff.
Neither the military, nor the department would say what kind of investigation has been launched, whether it involves military police, or if it is some other kind of internal review.
