    Ep# 320. General Wayne Eyre, Chief of Defense Staff

    The Commander of the entire Canadian Military joined me for a crucial discussion about Mental Health, and culture in the CAF. General Wayne Eyre has committed to clean up the culture in the CAF. We had a heartfelt conversation about how things were, how they are, and how they need to be. Please share your thoughts on our conversation, and PLEASE help to save lives by sharing this episode.
