A number of significant changes to the military justice system made by Bill C-25 were intended to address perceived deficiencies within the military justice system, including the goal of establishing clear standards of institutional separation between the investigative, prosecutorial, defence and judicial functions.
Le projet de loi C-25 apportait à ce système un certain nombre de changements importants afin de corriger les lacunes et établir, notamment, des normes précises permettant de distinguer nettement entre les enquêtes, les poursuites, la défense et la fonction juridictionnelle proprement dite.
