The Ban On Gays In The Military Ends (On Paper) - Pt.6
Update: 2024-06-27
Description
By the early 1990s the Conservative government of Brian Mulroney knew it could not continue the military's anti-homosexuality policies. However, his ministers and military kept looking for loopholes to continue their discrimination against LGB soldiers. Discover the behind-the-scenes legal drama that led to, what many consider to be, the end of the military's ban on gays in the military - including an interview with former diplomat and Chief of Defence Staff, John de Chastelain. Legal challenges to the government's heteronormative views of relationships were also leading to equal employment benefits, which would eventually apply to members of the military and RCMP.
