Hockey Canada says new policy promotes inclusion and privacy for all players.
It's early in the 2023-24 minor hockey season, and many players and their parents are getting adjusted to a new policy from Hockey Canada.
This season, all minor hockey players are being encouraged to wear the base layer they wear under their equipment to the arena. If they don't do that, they will have to change into their base layer inside a closed washroom stall at the rink.
The new policy is trying to promote inclusion and to respect the privacy of all participants on a team. It is now the responsibility of all coaches and team staff to instruct players regarding the minimum attire rule and make sure they are in compliance with it.

It’s not just Canada.
They started it, they’ll end it lol.
I don’t even watch sports anymore anyways. It’s bread and circuses for intellectually challenged people to keep them dumbed down and inept as to what is really going on while they keep at their nefarious plans.
Decades of these sports have helped keep males distracted while the agendas of the left have advanced unchecked.
Will the girls all be required to wear a cup so as not to offend the non-girls?

Like no one has other clues...like body frame proportions, artificially gruff voices, or gruff voices, ratio of body length to leg length, Q angle, topics of conversation, evidence of chin or “Adams apple” plastic surgery, length of fingers compared to hand length,, shoulder width compared to torso width, wideness of pelvis, scars under the nipples on the uncovered top part, head width tapering, etc...
Fear and stupidity reign.
I believe a lot of the political and social crisis are emphasized to keep people from seeing the corruption and money stealing going on by the government “officials”..I remember how the Rodney King beating was way,way, way overblown in an election year.
