EXCLUSIVE: Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan was aware of the military investigation into Maj.-Gen. Dany Fortin in March, CTV News has learned.

OTTAWA -- Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan was aware of the military investigation into Maj.-Gen. Dany Fortin in March, CTV News has learned.

“As is appropriate, I didn't receive details of what is being alleged, what's going on in terms of the investigation,” Trudeau continued, offering his first public comments about the investigation that was announced on Friday. According to Letourneau, Fortin has still not been officially informed of what the nature of the investigation is. As Fortin’s lawyer has previously told CTV News, Fortin was not aware of the specific allegation until CTV News contacted him.

The sources, who are not authorized to speak publicly, said Fortin is under investigation for allegedly exposing himself before a woman. “It would not be appropriate for me to be following that closely, an independent investigation like this,” Trudeau said, adding that his office’s role is about ensuring that everyone involved knows that the “proper processes” need to be followed.

If these allegations are only coming to light after 30+ years, this is a ridiculous and unnecessary embarrassment.
