    From nasty eggs to poutine: How the Canadian military is fed in the field

    Figuring out how to mass produce combat-ready meals for the Canadian military isn't an easy task. Figuring out how to make those meals not taste like sludge is even harder. But that's Edith Jutras' job. She's the manager of the National Combat Rations Program and her team is responsible for producing up to two million meals per year. She joins Dave to discuss how the military is fed in the field, how meals have such long shelf lives and why eggs are no longer on the menu. Learn more about your ad choices.

    The military's sexual misconduct problem

    In 2015, former Supreme Court justice Marie Deschamps released a major report on sexual misconduct in the Canadian Forces. It described a “hostile sexualized environment” in the military, which included everything from swearing and sexual innuendo to “dubious relationships” between junior female staff and high-ranking men. It also included rape. Has anything changed since the report?  Dave discusses this with women's rights advocate Julie Lalonde and lawyer and retired Col. Michel Drapeau.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Canadian Forces Chief Warrant Officer Alain Guimond and Scott Taylor, publisher of Esprit de Corps magazine, join Dave to talk about the next generation of military personnel.

    Northern threats: Canada's future in the Arctic

    The future of Canada's far north is far from certain and its Arctic sovereignty isn't universally accepted. China's government plans to invest up to $1 trillion to develop the polar regions, while the Russians are expanding military bases in their Arctic territories. Meanwhile, environmental risks grow each year as climate change transforms the north. Retired Lt.-Gen. Mike Day and retired Col. Pierre Leblanc join Dave to discuss the role of Canada's military in the Arctic and the threats it faces. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
