Biography

Lawrence Martin is a journalist and columnist for the Globe and Mail and an author. In August 1977 he published two articles with evidence that the RCMP was still collecting files on homosexuals in the public service, and the RCMP later admitted to using homosexuals as paid informants. After the information came out, the Public Service Alliance of Canada presented a brief to the federal government criticizing its approach to homosexuality and security clearance.
