The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) is struggling to recruit enough members to meet its operational requirements and does not have enough adequate housing for its members, according to two new reports by Canada’s Auditor General Karen Hogan.
Hogan’s Oct. 21 report said that on average, the CAF successfully recruited around one in every 13 applicants over the last three years.
