I've been very candid on what information was known. I've been very candid that the then prime minister directly asked General Vance, in March of 2015, about the issue from the NATO deployment relating to how he met his wife, and I have been very candid on what his answer was to that.
With regard to the rumour, the rumour was relayed to officials. We asked for an investigation. They reported back that there were no facts.
I think the real challenge at the heart of this is that, if there had been other facts or other information, then another decision would clearly have been taken. Really, underlying all of that, I think, as the committee has been deliberating for weeks, is this: How do we achieve cultural and structural change in the Canadian Armed Forces to not only keep our women in uniform safe but to ensure that they are empowered to bring forward allegations for independent investigative review?
