Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thanks to the three witnesses for being here and also for their service.
During our discussion this afternoon, you confirmed that mental health needs in the Canadian Armed Forces are real and that you take the subject very seriously. My son Louis, who is in the Sherbrooke Hussars regiment, took part in Operation Laser and was clearly informed, during his pre-deployment training, of the services available to him. In Montreal, where he was deployed, an on-site chaplain kept his door open and was always ready to listen. He was a benevolent presence. When Louis came home after the operation, he received a call and emails asking how he was doing following the deployment.
Colonel Wright, you discussed an integrated approach in your opening remarks. Is this a tangible example of that approach? Could you give us some other examples?
