I think he was looking at me when he said that.
On that point, the IPCC has said that countries that basically generate the most wealth are able to have the best outcomes when it comes to dealing with climate change because they have more options and more room, so I certainly appreciate your point, sir, and I hope that the government is listening.
Changing gears, though, I would like to first of all thank Mr. McKenna, Mr. Scott, and Mr. Bruyea. Mr. Scott, thank you for your service, and also it reminds me to thank Mr. Ouellette for his service as well. We should be mindful that veterans play a meaningful role in a variety of ways outside of their career service.
I would like to ask you this as a parliamentarian.
This is my second term. In the last Parliament we basically put in a change that would allow for Veterans Affairs to have a more liberal interpretation when they were inclined to not give a benefit because there was a doubt whether that particular benefit was owed, or a doubt as to the amount. I mean that, of course, just in terms of the amount, not the political philosophy.
From your experience, Mr. McKenna and Mr. Scott, in speaking to veterans, has there been any material change in the way that Veterans Affairs Canada conducts itself with people on that marginal line? Mr. Bruyea, you can also jump in there.
