Canada’s top military commander is headed for the exit.
Gen. Wayne Eyre, chief of the defence staff, has confirmed he plans to retire this summer, the Prime Minister’s Office said in a media statement Friday.
He has been in the job since February 2021, when he replaced the now-retired admiral Art McDonald as CDS. McDonald stepped aside after allegations of sexual misconduct surfaced — claims that military police later decided not to pursue.
He could almost turn out the lights.
