From what I'm hearing, because I also live in the Petawawa area, and from what I'm seeing in my own private practice, it unfortunately is going to take quite a bit. There needs to be an increase in staff in terms of what I believe is called the mental health clinic, although General Dallaire said that they're not using that name any more. A great number of people need to be hired to fill the positions so that the therapy can take place to help all the families that are hurting.
I told you about Petawawa in the 1990s. Petawawa right now is a much more tense place, because you have family members who sort of live daily with the understanding that they might get a phone call saying that their loved one who is serving in Afghanistan has died. There is a lot of stress because of that. It has increased the work for therapists in terms of families and in terms of workplace stress.
