Thank you, Madam Chair.
To begin, I'd like to thank the three witnesses appearing before us today. I think all your testimonies were poignant. The word that springs to mind is “courage”. There's the courage it took for you to come and testify before this committee today, but also the courage that I imagine you have to show on a daily basis. Frankly, you have my admiration.
My first question is for Ms. Cyr.
Suicide is a very serious problem. Do you think the Canadian Armed Forces are proactive in dealing with mental health issues and suicide, or do they step in only when it's too late?
