Thank you. I appreciate it. I have a few questions here and I want to make sure I get your responses.
What I struggle with is the whole process of transitioning from the armed forces to Veterans Affairs. I've been on this committee for eight years now, and quite honestly this issue has been front and centre for all eight of those years. We're just beginning to realize the struggles. We've been talking about women in the armed forces for over 20 years now, yet we're just beginning to take a look at these things.
What is the communication like in regard to what you need to hear about women's service in your relationship with DND? When someone is transitioning, do you feel that women have the same services available to them to make that transition? Should they be the same, or are we in a situation where we're trying to fit two square scenarios into...where one is a circle and one is a square? I won't say which one is a square.
