The findings of a survey on sexual assault within the Canadian Forces paint a troubling picture of the situation. Commissioned following the tabling of Justice Marie Deschamps ‘s report, the survey reveals that close to 1,000 sexual assault cases were reported in the twelve months preceding this consultation. Pierre Donais discusses this file with lawyer and retired colonel Michel Drapeau and Noémi Mercier, the reporter with journaliste de l’Actualité magazine who broke the story, in 2014, on sexual misconduct in the military. The following MPs also share their views on this file : Joël Lightbound (Liberal Party), Pierre Paul-Hus (Conservative Party), Brigitte Sansoucy (NDP) and Michel Boudrias (Bloc Québécois).
