Fortin expressed concerns with the way the military handles sexual misconduct allegations, and his case in particular, in a statement today posted to his LinkedIn profile.
Fortin was charged with sexual assault in August 2021 after a woman he attended military college with in 1988 brought a complaint to military police. He was removed from his job leading Canada's COVID-19 vaccine rollout program after an investigation was launched. Fortin says in the post that after a judge found him not guilty and the military cleared him of wrongdoing, the Armed Forces offered him a job — and then retracted that offer.
Defence Minister Bill Blair told reporters that he can't talk about the case because the government came to a settlement with Fortin last month in a lawsuit he had filed.
