Global National: March 17, 2021 | Why a senior officer in the Canadian military wants out
CA, 18 Mar 2021
She is among the top ranks of the Canadian military, and tonight, Lt.-Col. Eleanor Taylor is speaking exclusively to Global News about her decision to quit. In a powerful one-on-one interview with our Ottawa Bureau Chief Mercedes Stephenson, Taylor explains disgust over allegations of sexual misconduct drove her away and fueled her hope to make a difference. Taylor has formally requested her release from the Canadian Armed Forces as soon as possible. As Mercedes Stephenson reports, it appears they will be tough shoes to fill.
Global News has uncovered exclusive details about an independent review into an RCMP unit while it was being run by a suspected mole. In 2016, Cameron Ortis was hand-picked to lead the forces National Intelligence Coordination Centre. In 2019, he was arrested and charged with preparing to share secrets with a foreign entity. None of the allegations have been proven. Just months into his leadership role employees were complaining to leadership about harassment and a toxic work environment. David Akin reports.
If you use Microsoft Exchange for email in your workplace, which many of us do, you may have been affected by a recent cyberattack. The service was hit by a ransomware attack called “DearCry.” Abigail Bimman has more.
Quebec’s health-care system is once again facing allegations of racism after an Indigenous woman came forward with her story about mistreatment. It happened in the same health authority in which Joyce Echaquan died in September. Echaquan had used her phone to record the racism she faced from hospital staff. There was no recording this time but as Mike Armstrong reports, management appears to have had no problem proving it was true.
In the U.S., eight people were killed in a shooting rampage, six of whom were Asian-American women. A suspect is now charged in their murders and as Jackson Proskow explains, there are questions whether this attack was a hate crime.
Bars and pubs aren’t feeling the luck of the Irish again this year. Many establishments are facing restrictions on the limits of customers or limits on how late they can serve alcohol. Some aren’t open at all. Celebrations may be muted, but as Heather Yourex-West explains, some festivities are forging ahead.
