Charter of Victims in the Canadian Armed Forces

The passing of Bill C-77 in 2019 ensured that the privacy and security of victims within the Canadian Armed Forces was protected in law. However, this key legislation has not been implemented or enforced. 

Military members need to be able to report abuse of power and sexual misconduct, confident in the knowledge that they will not suffer further abuse or reprisal. 

Why has the Defence Minister failed to implement the charter of victims in the Armed Forces?
