Authors

  • Michel W Drapeau

Abstract

The approach taken by the Canadian Armed Forces’ (“CAF”) leadership in recent times to grievance resolution has lacked an appreciation for its historic and strategic importance, but there may be hope on the horizon. Recent changes to how the CAF leadership approach the serious backlog of administrative grievances awaiting determination shows that there is an appetite to ‘redress the redress’.
