Mr. Chair, I will split my time with my colleague Ted Opitz.
My question is a very brief one. If an ill or injured member is medically or generally released from the Canadian Forces, to what extent do the Canadian Forces help him or her to find gainful civilian employment?
CF members are not considered civil servants. When General Hillier was Chief of the Defence Staff, he allowed retired members to apply for civilian jobs in DND. However, this opportunity is not applied in other government sectors, in other ministries.
