The Department of National Defence says it won’t stand for members of the Canadian Armed Forces removing or vandalizing the feminine hygiene fixtures now required in men’s washrooms.
True North has received reports and photos of damaged or removed tampon dispensers and disposal units, which were mandated in all federally regulated male and female washrooms late last year.
One photo shared with True North was said to be taken in a men’s washroom at CFB Trenton, a large air base in central Ontario.
A spokesperson for the Department of National Defence said there have been no reports of vandalism at CFB Trenton, but this is not true of other military buildings.
Unfortunately, vandalism has already been observed on some dispensing/disposal units installed in (Department of National Defence) occupied buildings,” the spokesperson told True North in an email.
The federal mandate went into effect Dec. 15, with unsanctioned removals reported almost immediately after.
The Defence department said removing tampon dispensers and disposal units from men’s washrooms undermines the department’s efforts to create an “inclusive” environment for “cisgender women, gender diverse individuals, transgender men, and intersex individuals.”
“This type of behaviour will not be tolerated and goes against Defence Team efforts to create a truly inclusive and psychologically safe work culture,” a spokesperson said. “All members of the (Defence Team) must feel recognized, respected, and valued which will allow them to thrive in their environment.”

Yet they won’t be able to put cameras in the washrooms. I hope they keep getting damaged or removed.
Just wow.
Didn’t they put them in just in case the Prime Minister visits?
We used Kotex to get a first class spit shine on our cap toe jump boots.
This won’t end until we make them stop by any means necessary.
It’s like waking up in a Monte Python skit!

How much work is done in the restroom?
How do these SPOKESPEOPLE speak lines like that without cracking up?
THAT answers a lot of questions.
No WONDER my father emigrated from Quebec in in 190 something.
I guess the new Canadian Army wouldn’t have been available for landing on Juno Beach, then. They’d be too busy modeling lingerie.
Corcorans!
Except for NORMAL MEN. Putting tampon dispensers in a men’s room is terrible psychological abuse of normal men on many levels.
The insane libs are happy to traumatize 9,999 normal men to cater to ONE freak. Who let the inmates take over the asylum?
The libs need the treatment to fix their brains.
In Canada the government can do whatever it wants.
Tampons do well stanching blood flow from a bullet wound.
The West has become too stupid for its own survival.
LOL! Decades ago, in a pinch, I used maxi pads as drum ring dampeners.
