OTTAWA The federal Liberals are being accused of letting down victims of military sexual misconduct as a parliamentary committee prepares to rise for the summer without producing a report on the government s handling of allegations involving former defence chief Jonathan Vance. The House of Commons defence committee has been investigating the government s handling of complaints against Vance as well as current chief of defence staff Admiral Art McDonald since allegations against the two first emerged in February. Yet opposition members say nearly a month of Liberal filibustering has prevented the committee from finishing its final report before the House of Commons rises for the summer and a possible fall election.
