Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all of the witnesses for coming today.
My questions will be focused on you, Lieutenant-General Allen.
It's been said that there's a culture issue in the Canadian Forces. We've talked about the sexual misconduct. I want to talk about another side of this culture.
It seems to me that the backbone of any military's performance and competence requires a moral strength that's grounded in a belief in our communities, our country, the ability of our forces and camaraderie not only with your fellow soldiers but with your commanders and the nation.
Do you believe that our government and our military are doing everything they can to ensure that those fundamentals for our moral strength are being met in the Canadian Forces?
