Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I welcome our witnesses.
I want to pick up on Mr. Brison's comments on the Canadian Armed Forces, the work that Veterans Affairs has done on suicide prevention, and the application of mental health issues in general straight across that department.
I guess one of the things we see in the political world, unfortunately, is sometimes the raising of rhetoric around suicide. Everything you're ever taught in suicide prevention is that you don't bring attention to it: all of a sudden you have a cluster and that cluster starts to grow, and you get copycat incidents that spread as a cancer that is almost impossible to stop
Do you have any suggestions on how we handle that very important need—because it's politically sensitive—to have a positive suicide prevention program and yet not inadvertently be part of the drivers?
