Gord Johns at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

Thank you.

Thank you all for your testimony.

First, I want to thank Mr. Bruyea and Ms. Brill-Edwards for their service to Canada and for sharing their heartbreaking stories. It's painful to hear them. I'm very sorry to hear what you've been through. I want to highlight that and thank you for your courage.

All of you who are here today are testifying to pursue justice, not just for what your experience has been, but for those who are in the public service and for the future of our country. I thank you.

Mr. Bruyea, could you explain why you recommend that serving CAF members collecting VAC benefits should be covered under this act? Elaborate a bit on what you started in your testimony.
