In Canada, they've decided to put free tampons and other products for periods in men's bathrooms at places like government buildings, airports, and military places. This new rule is something that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau really supports.
This change means that these products for periods will be in all bathrooms, even if the bathroom sign says it's for men.
A person who used to work in the Canadian government, Linda Frum, who is a conservative, posted a picture showing these products in a men's bathroom. She said that in the past, only women used to buy these products for themselves. But now, they're making them free in men's bathrooms too, and she took the photo in a bathroom at Parliament Hill, where the government works.
Another Twitter account, @HoCStaffer, also talked about this new rule in Canada. They posted a picture of the official policy. This policy says that things like tampons are really important basic needs. By giving them away for free in bathrooms, they hope it will make people feel less embarrassed or awkward about menstruation, which is a normal part of life.
“Can confirm that your tax dollars now provide free tampons in the Parliament of Canada mens’ washrooms. For “employees who menstruate.”
The main goal of this new rule in Canada is to make workplaces better and more welcoming for people who get periods. They want to make sure that everyone feels comfortable using the bathroom that matches their gender identity.
This whole plan was supposed to be completely in place by December 15, 2023. That means by that date, all these products for periods should be available for free in all the bathrooms, including men's bathrooms, in places like government offices.
