Brig.-Gen. Krista Brodie named new head of Canada's vaccine rollout
An army logistics officer who's spent more than 30 years in uniform has been named the military officer in charge of the Public Health Agency of Canada's vaccine rollout.
PHAC announced today the appointment of Brig.-Gen. Krista Brodie following the sudden departure of Maj.-Gen. Dany Fortin, who left the post on Friday after an allegation of sexual misconduct was raised.
At one point in her career, Brodie commanded 1 Service Battalion, one of the military's largest units. She has also served in overseas deployments in Croatia, Bosnia and Afghanistan.
Since the military was brought in last year to help with the planning and logistics of vaccine distribution and to keep the supply chain safe from cyber attacks, Brodie has been a key member of the team led by Fortin.
She returned briefly to the Department of National Defence but will now move back to oversee the vaccine distribution drive.
Iain Stewart, president of the public health agency, said putting Brodie in charge "allows for a seamless transition."
Fortin had been the public face of the vaccine distribution drive — a calm, reassuring presence throughout many televised events. His 27-member team included experts in global logistics, health care and planning.
Sources told CBC News on Friday that the sexual misconduct allegation against Fortin predated 2015 and the start of Operation Honour, the military's now-defunct campaign to stamp out inappropriate behaviour in the ranks.
The confidential sources, who could not speak publicly because of the sensitivity of the file, would not specify the nature of the allegation. On Sunday, however, CTV News reported that the allegation involved a claim of indecent exposure more than 30 years old, dating from when Fortin attended the Royal Military College in St-Jean, Quebec.
His lawyer, Cmdr. Marc Létourneau, said his client will fight the claim.
"It is a news reporter who informed Major-General Fortin of the allegation against him Sunday, May 16," Letourneau said in a written statement. "This took him completely by surprise. He vigorously and categorically denies this allegation."
Fortin joins a list of half-a-dozen military leaders who have come under fire for alleged sexual misconduct.
His departure came about suddenly. As late as Friday morning, Fortin was listed as being seconded to PHAC in a Department of National Defence statement involving the assignments of general officers.
CBC News reached out to Fortin for comment, but he declined and has referred questions to the Department of National Defence.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tasked Fortin with leading Canada's COVID-19 vaccine distribution effort in the fall.
The prime minister ducked questions today about how the general's sudden departure would affect vaccine distribution. On Friday, Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan took a stab at reassurance, saying the military would remain focused on the task of getting millions more life-saving vaccine doses into the country.
There were signs Monday that opposition parties were gearing up to reopen parliamentary hearings on the sexual misconduct crisis in the military. A meeting of the House of Commons defence committee has been called for Tuesday to discuss a proposal to hear more witnesses.
Public hearings looking into who in the Liberal government knew about a sexual misconduct allegation against the former chief of the defence staff, retired general Jonathan Vance, had largely concluded. The committee was on course to begin writing its report but the latest allegations involving Fortin could raise more questions.

Boston-based CargoMetrics Technologies was founded by Borgerson in 2010 as data-driven investment company that uses proprietary software to provide real-time insight into the global shipping industry. The company has long been considered a front-runner in the space of big data in shipping and has attracted investments from tech bigwigs such as Eric Schmidt, former CEO and executive chairman of Google, and hedge fund investor Paul Tudor Jones. In 2017, the company entered into an equity agreement with Maersk Tankers, giving the A.P. Moller-Maersk unit access to CargoMetrics’ data and software.

Maersk Tankers said on Wednesday it has entered into an equity agreement with U.S. hedge fund CargoMetrics, giving it access to analytical models and algorithms to better manage its tanker operations.
Maersk Tankers, a unit of shipping group A.P. Moller-Maersk , has invested a “significant” but undisclosed amount in the Boston-based hedge fund, which will give the firm exclusive right to its analytical models, algorithms and capabilities.
CargoMetrics links satellite signals, historical shipping data and proprietary analytics for trading purposes in its systematic investment platform.
“Data about the ninety-percent of global trade that moves by sea is a powerful trading edge,” said Scott Borgerson, Chief Executive of CargoMetrics in a statement.
The investment is in line with the more than 100-year old conglomerate A.P. Moller-Maersk’s push into new technologies as global trade becomes increasingly more digital.
“In the partnership, we will accelerate our use of digital solutions to enable our business strategy,” said Maersk Tankers Chief Strategy and Transformation Officer Soren Meyer. (Reporting by Jacob Gronholt-Pedersen and Stine Jacobsen)
