After devoting extended paragraphs to each cultural infraction, Eichler concludes that the Canadian Armed Forces must be remade via an “anti-oppression framework” of “feminist, decolonial, critical race, queer, critical disability, and critical political economy theories.”


Sometimes in the military you have to be an oppressive racist as you go out and kill the enemy.

The Canadian military has previously one of the best professional military organizations on Earth.

Small, but professional and highly competent.

This is very sad.

I see where the police in Canada are telling people not to post videos of porch pirates on line as it violates their privacy ... Can the world get any more screwed up?

Yeah... Guess the Canadian military should wipe out government and start over.

They are grooming them to fight against the real enemy - which is Canada’s dissident population.

Is far as I am concerned, the Canadian Forces should be as fagified and incompetent as possible.

And send all their weapons to Ukraine !

So the Canadian Army will consist of people with all sorts of disabilities in wheelchairs, throwing flower petals in the general direction of some white people, while chanting mantras of goodwill?

Since Canada had no slavery, with exceptions for the Indians, virtually everyone there came because they or their forebears wanted to, again excepting the Indians. It sounds like it would be best if everyone, except the Indians, left.

“The issue lacks the journal sections typically devoted to strategy or military history. Instead, it’s a series of 13 essays all devoted to what an introduction describes as a “feminist intersectional trauma-informed approach to reimagine and transform CAF culture.”

Take that, Putin!!!!

Is that a pledge pin on your uniform?!?

You have born to kill on your helmet and wear a peace button on your lapel? You better get your head and your ass wired together or I will take a giant **** on you. Son, all I’ve ever asked of my Marines is that they obey my orders as if they were the word of God!

Socialists are so cute, they believe if they go big-time into the “deconstruction of colonialism” they will still get to run everything, even after the Indians are given unlimited power and resources.

When in fact, after everyone else is booted out, the Indians will come to the socialists and say, “WTF are you peckerheads doing, still here, get lost.”

And they will cry real tears because they thought they would be organizing everything for the adorable Indians, as before.

And the Indians will laugh loud and strong as the lefties sail away to join the rest of former Canadian citizens now living back in Eurostan. Loud and strong. Unlike socialists, weak and wrong.
