Yes, I certainly agree with you. It's the idea that what we can't have happen is for veterans to be affected, and clearly what we're hearing here is that they're being affected. Not only that, but key partners like yourself were not even consulted about this. You would clearly have raised alarms. This is why it is so important that this happened.
We were assured by the Minister of Veterans Affairs, both at the finance committee and at the veterans affairs committee, that no cuts were going to affect services to veterans; there were not going to be any cuts. When we're talking about 300 veterans who aren't going to have their cases heard, would this not constitute a cut to services to veterans?
