In this episode of Defence Deconstructed, we sit down with Charlotte Duval-Lantoine. Today we discuss the recently released reports from the Auditor General this week on Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) recruiting and housing. We outline the restrictions to the current criteria, the effect this has on both rates of recruitment and status of housing and how this determines the future of the CAF.
