To put it bluntly, Canadians have an expectation that they will have a very disciplined force. This is at the heart of democracy. It is a force that can be controlled because it is a force that may be called upon to use up to lethal force in order achieve governmental objectives. The military justice system ensures that there's a disciplined force and that these higher expectations on serving members can be effectively implemented. It ensures the discipline and the operational efficiency of that force, and also the morale, because a functioning force needs to be cohesive and needs to have high morale.
