The University of King s College s independent review of sexual assault allegations against former professor Wayne Hankey is the right thing to do, but could have an impact on current or future court cases, legal experts say.
Hankey, 76, is facing two counts of sexual assault and one count of indecent assault in connection with incidents, some of which are alleged to have occurred on the university s Halifax campus. The allegations date to the late 1970s and 1980s.

One of the lawyers hired to conduct a review of a sexual assault allegation against former University of King s College professor Wayne Hankey is asking people to contact her if they have relevant information to share.
Janice Rubin, of the Toronto law firm Rubin Thomlinson, made the appeal to King s students, alumni, faculty and staff on Monday.
In a separate incident, Hankey was disciplined by both King s and the Anglican Church in 1991 after another former student alleged Hankey had sexually abused him for two years in the late 1970s.

OTTAWA Thirty-three complaints about sexual violence, sexual harassment and discrimination in the workplace were filed in the first eight months following the launch of the Ottawa Police Service Workplace Sexual Violence and Harassment project. Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly provided an update on sworn and civilian members of the service who have come forward following the launch of the sexual violence and harassment strategy last spring. In May 2020, Ottawa Police launched the Workplace Sexual Violence and Harassment (WSVH) project to eliminate workplace sexual violence and harassment in the service. Chief Sloly also announced the launch of the Ottawa Police Service s Respect, Values and Inclusion Directorate to incorporate a whole-of-service approach to issues like workplace harassment, discrimination, human rights issues, as well as ethics, equity, diversity and inclusion principles.
