Opposition force emergency meeting of defence committee on Norman affair
OTTAWA — Three Conservative and one NDP MP are requesting that the House of Commons national defence committee be reconvened to examine the government’s conduct in the investigation and prosecution of Vice-Admiral Mark Norman.
Norman was the second-in-command of Canada’s military before he was suspended and then charged with breach of trust over alleged leaks of secret information about a navy shipbuilding contract.
Federal prosecutors stayed the charges on Wednesday, saying they had no reasonable prospect of getting a conviction.
