    CAPE DORSET, Nunavut — Nunavut RCMP have charged a former Mountie with sex offences involving a child that stem back to the 1960s.
     
    The charges follow a complaint filed by one person about alleged sexual assaults in Cape Dorset, a hamlet near the southern tip of Baffin Island.

    He is to appear in Iqaluit court on the charges on Sept. 14.
     
    RCMP were not immediately available for comment.
