While Canadians worry about the rise in the cost of living, woke Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and liberals are focused on tampons.
Under a new policy, tampons and sanitary pads are now available for free in men’s bathrooms at the Canadian Parliament.
The policy requires all federally regulated employers, which includes airports and military bases, to offer free menstrual products in all washrooms, regardless of what gender is identified on the door.
Canadian Conservative Sen. Linda Frum shared the news on X, “Back in the day, when only women menstruated, we had to pay for our own products. But now that men menstruate too, these products, as of this week, are mandated to be free in all men’s washrooms in all federal workplaces, including Parliament Hill — where this photo was taken today.”

“This means that every female-identified, male-identified and all gender toilet rooms will need to have menstrual products,” the regulations posted to Canada’s Employment and Social Development website say.
“Unrestricted access to menstrual products better protects menstruating employees and makes sure that they feel safe to use the toilet room that best reflects their gender.”
It is up to each employer to find the funding necessary to purchase these products and disposal containers.
In a statement, Trudeau’s government said that “providing employees with access to menstrual products supports better health outcomes and workplace productivity while reducing the stigma often associated with menstruation.”
Brian Lilley writes in the Toronto Sun, “Then there’s one of those phrases again that is all about eliminating women from our language, “menstruating employees.” It’s right up there with mentruators – recently used in our Parliament – or terms like pregnant people, people who lactate or chestfeeders.”
“Today, we can’t use terms like women because according to the current thinking – but not backed up by biology – not all people who menstruate are women. Men, we are told, can have periods.”
Let me transplain this to you women:
No one knows what a woman needs more than a man dressed as a woman.
So if angry men tell you that they need your hygiene products and spaces to feel more woman-y, do what the men say.
Yes this was sarcasm.

Canada has joined Operation Prosperity Guardian in the Red Sea, and we are sending the most vital piece of military gear to help.
Weapons grade tampons.
These will be available to men fighting on the front lines, and will help us teach the enemy how to use gender language. pic.twitter.com/M0BeXtZh5v
