I can tell you that if we had got hold of that guy that day or shortly thereafter, we wouldn't have had to worry about mandatory minimums. That is not justice, but maybe it's our type of justice.
Giving that person or any person over to the Legion or any veterans organization for punishment I think would not be very appropriate. Our organizations, as I expressed, are losing our members so fast. We don't mind; we like to work with the youth, and we always do.
We're getting too old to supervise a bunch of kids erasing paint or something like that, but we do welcome any legislation that will help get rid of this. It's not right. It's a desecration of honour and respect.
Our youth and all our people in Canada, except those who are doing the damage, honour the veterans every Remembrance Day. I don't think I've missed a Remembrance Day in 60-some years, and there are always a lot of children. People come out to respect the memory of the veterans.
