The role of the infantry, as written in doctrine, is to 'Close with and destroy the enemy'.

Any external influence that distracts from that role, and that is not somehow related to that role, and that can be avoided without negatively affecting the role, needs to be eliminated.

Although not a fan, the Canadian Forces can experiment with Transgenderism, because, quite realistically, we're not the defenders of the free world. Whether we spend $500,000 on a sex change operation, counselling, hormone therapy and the like, or hand grenades, really doesn't matter a wit.

On the other hand, the US Military needs to be focused on the mission. If they fail, there is no other organization in the world that can defend freedom.  

Good call.
