Yeah. The hyper-politicization of the military is how you convert the national military into the Democrat party military (or in our case, the Liberal party military).
The idea being, a military that's loyal to country will be reluctant to turn on their own countrymen in service to some tyrant president/party who are trying to take permanent dictatorial control over the country. On the contrary, a military loyal to country will oppose such a takeover and will side with the people over the tyrant.
So the tyrant therefore has to rid the military of anyone who's loyal to country, leaving only people who are loyal to the tyrant. The Waffen SS, Baathist Republican Guard, Iranian Revolutionary Guard - these are examples of partisan military forces who are/were loyal to leader/party over country. Tyrants create these forces to defend them and their rule specifically, should they ever find themselves at odds with the country as a whole. What's happening in western countries right now is even worse - the national armed forces are being deliberately converted in into party-loyal forces.
The US is only just starting down this road. Canada is already five years into it. It starts with:
After a few years of that, you can convert your national military into an SS or Republican Guard style partisan force who will have no problem at all with being used to oppress conservatives, and who will always side with party over country. That's the whole plan.
Beware any party/leader who goes about trying to purge the armed forces of members who aren't loyal to his party. That's a classic tyrant move and it can only mean one thing - the military is being converted into a partisan force to be used to repress dissenting political groups.
Leaders who respect democracy and the sanctity of pluralism accept that people they disagree with are allowed to exist- both in the armed forces and in the general public. The only reason to convert the military into a homogenous party-loyal forces is if you plan to use them to seize power and eliminate your political opposition.
Harper then appointed Vance who vowed to "stamp out sexual misconduct" and to change the macho culture of the military as recommended by the investigation.

Only five years? Started way before Trudeau.
The first time military members marched in uniform in a pride parade was under Harper in 2007: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/soldiers-march-in-toronto-gay-pride-parade-1.725575
The Harper admin was the first one to launch a full scale investigation into the "sexual misconduct and sexual harassment" culture of the military.

Harper then appointed Vance who vowed to "stamp out sexual misconduct" and to change the macho culture of the military as recommended by the investigation.

And now we have Trudope dismantling the military even further while O'Toole goes around telling people "that the military failed women".
