I have heard a lot about such events, Stéphane. More than 500 soldiers who have since left the Canadian Forces told me stories about atrocities. Just listening to them practically stresses me to the same extent. I have also met with young soldiers at the Valcartier base. Because they were afraid of losing their jobs, there was a curtain between them and me when I met with them. They did not want to be recognized. I think we need to invest in that area.
In closing, I would ask you to comment briefly on this. When we met with the last witness, I compared the Operational Stress Injury Social Support Program, or OSISS, to Alcoholics Anonymous. I don't want to denigrate Alcoholics Anonymous, because they do good work, but based on what I've read, the debriefing has to occur within a month or several weeks of the event. You cannot wait. That means that psychologists have to be in the battlefield.
