The army general who took the rap for a contentious Canadian Forces videotape was relieved of his post, but remained unapologetic. Major General Brian Vernon was reassigned after the military said he provided inaccurate and misleading information to his superiors about a third Airborne videotape. He said it contained "innocuous scenes," but his higher-ups thought "self-imposed electric-shock testing" and soldiers shaving their heads was more than a breach of military discipline. Vernon held a news conference and said he was not guilty and that he hadn't changed his opinion of the videotape. Previously revealed personal videos by Canadian Forces members recorded brutal hazing rituals and racist tirades.
