The Canadian military isn't doing enough to crack down on far-right extremists within its ranks, according to a report released this week. The report leaned on the research of UNB prof @DavidCHofmann. He's my guest at 7:15 on @infoamfred cbc.ca/news/politics/militar…

Canadian military not doing enough to detect, prevent extremism in the ranks: report | CBC News
