$16 million

Just when you thought it couldn't get any stupider, it does.  The government is now going to spend.....wait for it.....sit down.....hydrate.....$16 million a year for sanitary products in federal washrooms! #%$&$%@!$%!!  $16 million !!@%#^%&%$%@##%^$^

I guess the minister for youth, gender equality and women, failed broadcaster Marci Ien, couldn't think of anything else to do, so she dreamt up this program.  Hey, Marci, why not look into sexual assault in hockey?  Now that's something serious that affects youth and women.  Contracting out sanitary pads isn't.  

And why should the public pay for tampons and pads?  Trudeau the Elder said the government had no business in the bedrooms of the nations, but evidently The Younger now thinks it's a good idea for the government to meddle in federal bathrooms.   

And who stepped right up the support the move?  None other than our trusty "feminist" minister of labour, Seamus O'Regan.  "We don't expect employees to bring their own toilet paper, so they shouldn't have to bring their own tampons," he brilliantly opined.  I remember dispensing machines in women's washrooms for those caught unawares, but you paid for those.  Now, with nothing left to throw money at, the Liberals are going to throw it at sanitary products.  

But this is the best part:  "We'll also be making them available in men's washrooms for all those who identify with one of the other 22 gender options," added O'Regan.  Whaaaat#$^!!@??  Does this mean that men will now be menstruating at will?  Or is it for men who identify as women and want to carry around pads and tampons in their purses for more authenticity.  Or is it for women who identify as "binary" or male, want to use the men's washroom and may be menstruating? 

What's next?  Free condoms?!!   

Remind me, what do the signs say on washrooms these days?  Clearly, they can no longer be "Women" or "Men".  I must start noticing because that's material for another blog for sure.

Just a word about the hearings into the truckers' protest.  I have done three blogs on this mess:

• What in Gawd's name?!  February 4, 2022
• Ludicrous, February 17, and
• Three people, February 20, 2022

These blogs outlined clearly what was going on and blamed Affirmative Action for the appointment of the disastrously unsuited Peter Sloly as Ottawa police chief.  It's really laughable to see Diane Deans, head of the Ottawa Police Board, throwing Sloly and everyone else under the bus in her testimony.  Diane, don't you remember it was you who hired the guy?  And, by the way, aren't you a beneficiary of Affirmative Action yourself?

All the government has to do is read those blogs to get the answers.  That'd save 65 witnesses, six weeks and millions of dollars.  Here's Sloly defending his actions and shifting blame.  What a waste of time and money:
