Two Nova Scotia veterans are calling for an inquiry into what the first ombudsman for the Canadian Forces once called a systemic problem of racism in the military. Rubin Coward, a Royal Canadian Air Force veteran, and Wally Fowler, a Canadian Forces veteran, are calling for a public inquiry into a problem they say the government has known about for years. Both men, who are black, say they faced racism while serving. I cannot, of good conscience — good and clear conscience — encourage any minorities to join the Canadian Armed Forces, Coward told reporters at a news conference in Halifax on Thursday.
