À propos de ce contenu audio

Once hailed as Canada’s premier rapid deployment force, the Canadian Airborne Regiment was born out of Cold War urgency and political ambition. But behind the disciplined drills and maroon berets lay a darker story — one marked by internal dysfunction, a culture of impunity, and an international scandal that shocked the nation. In this episode, we trace the origins of the Regiment, the political forces that shaped it, and the bad behaviour that ultimately led to its disbandment.


Featuring key players, buried reports, and the fallout from Somalia, Command and Controversy unpacks how an elite force became a national disgrace — and what it reveals about power and accountability in Canada’s military.
