You can understand why the numbers for the Canadian Forces have been growing for the past five years, but in the case of the RCMP, the veterans of the Second World War and the Korean War, and maybe the Suez peacekeepers, is it because you're finally treating these people that you're getting these numbers? Is word spreading, particularly among the veterans?
They were suffering these conditions for decades, and all of a sudden they're coming into the picture as statistics. They are near the end of their days. Whether they had pensions before they were diagnosed with mental illness I don't know, but it seems totally unfair that these people spent fifty years being untreated, and now all of a sudden they're coming out of the woodwork.
As well, to what would you attribute the clearly dramatic increases in the RCMP numbers?
