Veterans Affairs committee I'll do the talking. Being the doctor, I'll ask the questions. If I understand correctly, was there no accident? Was there no fire?

Veterans Affairs committee It's anything. It's whatever you say. If I have a tie on, it's “Mister”, and if I have a white coat, it's “Doctor”.

Veterans Affairs committee Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I was informed by Madame Corbin that I could make some introductory remarks. I will read them to keep within the time limits. Although not part of my introductory remarks, I have four recommendations that I would like to make to your committee.

Dr. Pierre Morisset
Veterans Affairs committee When looking at the depleted uranium literature, you often come back to these hypotheses. We thought there was sufficient confusion in the minds of veterans, or anyone, for that matter, who might be reading this that we might just suggest there is a putative link between depleted uranium and these symptoms; that because these symptoms are real and affect a large number of veterans, it might be worthwhile to include them in the conclusion at the end, as a signal that there may be something else.

Veterans Affairs committee You did well.
February 14th, 2013Committee meeting

Dr. Pierre Morisset
Veterans Affairs committee Let us make sure we understand each other. Let me play the doctor again. If someone comes to see me and tells me that he is tired, I am going to try to find clinical reasons for that fatigue. Does he have anemia; does he have cancer? I am going to eliminate causes one by one. My first conclusion is not going to be that he is suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome.
February 14th, 2013Committee meeting
Dr. Pierre Morisset
Veterans Affairs committee Are you saying uranium mines in Sudbury or in Elliot Lake?
February 14th, 2013Committee meeting
Dr. Pierre Morisset
Veterans Affairs committee Yes it is, from the information that we have.

Dr. Pierre Morisset
Veterans Affairs committee —but it's the radiation effect, equivalent radiation.
