I'll now switch to French for one last question, Mr. Chair.
I read a statement from the veterans' ombudsman, Guy Parent, entitled “Myth Busting – Reserve vs Regular Force Benefits”.
I'm wondering about something. The ombudsman proposed to eliminate the difference between the rate for reserve force members and the rate for regular force members with regard to the earnings loss benefit, the supplementary retirement benefit, the long term disability plan, and the accidental dismemberment insurance plan. He raised a number of issues regarding the difference in treatment between the two groups.
I'm concerned that we may not be paying attention to this issue. If people hurt themselves while serving in the reserve force, let's say in Gatineau, what happens? Maybe they won't receive the same compensation as regular force members?
