I've written several posts about the tragic story of Cpl. Stuart Langridge, who killed himself seven years ago after serving his country honourably in Bosnia and Afghanistan.
I told you how the military didn't accept that he was suffering from PTSD, they didn't treat his illness, they treated him like a cheater, until he finally hanged himself.
I also told you how they kept his suicide note from his parents for over a year, even though it was addressed to them.
And how his parents finally found out earlier this year that a secret military report had blamed him for what happened.
But this has to be the final betrayal.
I've never had much time for Gen. Tom Lawson, our country's top soldier.
I believe he has helped turn our military into Harper's Army. And has not done enough to fight this hideous problem.
The Canadian Armed Forces perpetuates a sexualized military culture that is hostile to women and gay members, and harassment and assault are often tolerated by senior officers, according to a report released Thursday.
But this is the absolute limit.
The other day I wrote a post accusing Jason Kenney of lying. Again. Claiming that the reason we are going to bomb Syria is because the Americans need us and our so-called smart-bombs.
And of getting the country's top general Tom Lawson to cover for him.
Well today Lawson ate his words and make Kenney look like an idiot.
The only thing more disturbing than having an incompetent Cold War chickenhawk like Jason Kenney posing as a Defence Minister, and lying like a thief. Over and over again.
Is having Canada's top general, running behind him with a shovel.
To scoop up his manure, or as David Pugliese writes, dig him out of a bomb crater of his own making.
