Carignan, the chief of professionalism and conduct in the military, is in the midst of a five-year campaign to combat sexual misconduct by overhauling the Canadian Forces' culture.
Since 2021, more than a dozen current and former senior Canadian military officers have been sidelined, investigated or forced into retirement from some of the most powerful and prestigious posts in the defence establishment.CBC News asked Carignan if the military has a problem with alcohol. She said the Canadian Armed Forces is in the process of "assessing" the data.
"We are learning that in some periods of the year there are spikes, which now prompts our leaders to take the necessary action to prevent," said Carignan.
