Canada's Military Allows Skirts, Facial Tattoos And Hair Colouring For Soldiers
Republic World ^ | 7th July, 2022 | Zaini Majeed

Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) on Wednesday permitted the servicemembers to have facial tattoos, dye their hair, allowed women to keep long nails and wear skirts in an attempt to make military service more inclusive. In a statement, Ottawa's Department of National Defence said that these new military dress and personal grooming regulations were aimed "to support respect, diversity and inclusiveness" and to encourage the youth to join the armed forces.

"A uniform does not define discipline or operational effectiveness, just as the colour or length of your hair does not define your dedication," Gen. Eyre said.

The decadence of Western progressive/liberal government practice & theory is a slow poison killing all nations who adopt it.

As for Canada, the Canadian armed forces is a wreck, reflecting the wreck that is Canadian society. Allowing face tattoos, long hair and skirts on troops won't help the Canadian military. The "reforms" allowing degenerate personal appearance and behavior, designed by woke idiots in an effort to increase the number of Canadians volunteering for the armed forces, is a dismal failure. Canadian youth would rather stay at home, collect welfare, do drugs, and play games.

Canada is fortunate its geographic position atop North America largely insulates it from threats.

Worship of the false god of “diversity” has brought us to this point folks. Diversity was never about tolerance. It was about destruction of our nations from the inside out.

From the article posted:

“The Canadian army will now be allowed to choose whether to wear skirts or pants. The updated rules will accommodate the men who identify as females to wear the skirts and blouses as part of their uniforms, according to an FAQ released by the Canadian military. “The appearance of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) has not kept pace with the Canadian society which it serves,” the document stated. The major changes in the uniforms will no longer be divided into the categories ‘male’ and ‘female’. “Both catalogues are open to all members and they may be intermixed.”

From the movie WATERLOO...
Napoleon, upon seeing Scots in Kilts marching on his position:

“Has Wellington nothing to offer me but these women?”

The Canadian veterans of WWI and WWII have mostly passed away. If alive they would weep at what is happening to the Canadian armed forces.

The father of a friend of mine, crossed over from Detriot to Windsor in 1914 to enlist in the Canadian army and fight in WWI. I doubt he would make the same journey today.

from the article posted:

“No restrictions will be exercised on the appearance such as long hair unless it impedes performance. Face tattoos are also allowed and will be banned exceptionally if it is found associated with criminal gangs, or indicate discrimination. General Wayne Eyre said that the move pushes for diversity in accordance with society.”

When I served in the Marines, it was hell on my nails. I couldn't get them to grow at all as I was always chipping and breaking them.

Glad I don't have to go through that again.

Just to be clear, the military has allowed service women to wear skirts and have long nails. They didn't say anything about men having to wear them. That said, I don't doubt that it's only a skip and a jump to full trans choice to whatever they want.

I watched a crime drama movie recently that had the story based near Toronto. The area was “The Village”. Yep, you guessed it everyone was gay or trans. Every window in the city was covered in the rainbow garbage.
Crappy movie anyway.

No sweat. In Biden's woke military, it won't be long before MEN will be allowed to wear skirts and have long nails. (And the Chinese are laughing their a$$es off).

That's how it always begins. A little at a time.

Before long, male recruits will be issued camisoles, nail polish and stilettos in boot camp.

Never understood how women in the military can grow their hair long, but men can’t...

Everyone is deemed equals in the military nowadays...

No more high and tights!!
