    I wonder why religions fall under National Defense page, in Canada? Is the army keeping an eye on religion?

    I never expected "religions" to be in the National Defense category...

    Good joke, I though you were serious for a second.

    In accordance with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Canadian Human Rights Act, the policy of the Canadian Forces is to accommodate the fundamental religious requirements of its members. The purpose of this reference document is to provide general information and awareness about the various religious and spiritual practices in Canada. It contains a description of major religious and spiritual requirements and tenets, including celebrations and observances, as well as dress, dietary, medical and health requirements. Although this is not the definitive guide to all religions in Canada, it should assist Commanding Officers and supervisors to understand and respond to requests for accommodation.
