A leak, a probe, a case closed: A timeline of the Mark Norman saga
OTTAWA — The decision Wednesday to stay a breach-of-trust charge against Vice-Admiral Mark Norman has ended his criminal case but his future in the military is unclear. What’s happened so far:
June 2013: Mark Norman is named commander of the Royal Canadian Navy after 33 years as a reservist and regular-force officer.
July 2015: The Conservative government enters into an agreement with Chantier Davie Shipbuilding in Quebec to lease a converted civilian ship as a temporary naval-supply vessel. The decision is made after asking industry for ideas on filling the gap after the military’s previous two resupply ships were forced into early retirements. But the deal is not final.
