A Canadian soldier is facing charges of inappropriate behaviour after performing medical exams on female recruits.

The Canadian Forces says Sgt. Christian Boudreau has been charged with five counts of breach of trust and five counts of behaving in a disgraceful manner.

The military alleges the incidents took place while he was examining women at recruitment centres in Montreal and Rouyn-Noranda, Que.

It says Sgt. Boudreau is no longer conducting medical exams on recruits.

The Canadian Forces have reassigned Sgt. Boudreau to administrative duties at CFB St-Jean until the end of his case.
