Maj.-Gen. Dany Fortin is stepping aside from his role as the head of Canada's COVID-19 vaccine rollout amid a military investigation into him.

Details are unclear at this time but the military announced the news in a statement late Friday evening.

“Today, Major-General Dany Fortin has left his assignment with the Public Health Agency of Canada, pending the results of a military investigation,” said a spokesperson for the Department of National Defence in a statement.

“Acting Chief of the Defence Staff, Lieutenant-General Eyre will be reviewing next steps with Major-General Fortin. We will have no further comment.”
