There's another issue with this, though. In 2015, we were in front of a minister of veteran affairs who was pushing an education benefit to us, trying to settle the Equitas court case. Four of the six plaintiffs were eligible and went through the advanced period and the election, but in the end all four of them were denied this new benefit.
It's always in the best spirit, I'm sure, that a government pushes out these new programs, but then you have to remember that they're going to be handed over to the bureaucracy. They design internal procedures behind them for eligibility criteria, and they're often very arcane, to the point that their own case managers don't necessarily understand who is eligible within the program. Very often they will just deny them a program rather than risk approving somebody when they don't really understand the benefit very well.
There's considerable problem with the delivery. I don't doubt that it's a great program up front, but a year or two from now is when we find out whether people are actually getting it.
