Françoise Boivin at the Justice and Human Rights Committee

I want to make sure I understand what you are saying.

I will read the text in English.

Where the payment of the pension of a member of the forces was suspended at the time of the member's death, the Minister may direct that the survivor be awarded the pension to which the survivor would be entitled under subsection (2), (2.1), (3) or (3.01) if the pension had not been suspended.

I think that what we really want to say is:

“as if the pension had not been suspended”.
