Viewed as a threat to national security, soldiers and officers were discharged dishonourably under regulation CFAO 19-20 Sexual Deviation Homosexuality-Sexual-Abnormality-Investigation, Medical Examination and Disposal which stated, ‘Service policy does not allow homosexual members or members with a sexual abnormality to be retained in the Canadian Forces’.Careers were lost, and in some cases lives were taken, as, searching for evidence of prohibited behaviour. In addition to dismissal, the accused were stripped of all government benefits, including health-care, and denied any chance at possible reinstatement.Previous attempts by politicians and citizens have been swept aside and ignored by federal leadership, and it's time to do the right thing. A soldier is a soldier.

It's never too late to right a wrong.

Officially endorsed by Peter Stoffer MP (NDP Veterans Critic) and Paul Dewar MP (NDP Foreign Affairs Critic)
