I believe it's very hard for occupational disease. It's something that's a specialty. I want you to know that I am living in Saskatchewan. That means that I don't have doctors, but I also don't have the information for the WCB and VAC.
My husband and I had very nice savings. They are gone. I needed it to be able to proceed with this because I had to know from a doctor, a doctor specialized in visual impairment and neurological conditions, that they felt the same as I do—that it is toxic related.
I had to spend my own money on hotels so that I could come here today with facts. I'm a facts person. I'm a data person. I like policies, and I like pulling them apart and seeing how they work. However, I'm going to tell you something: It's very hard to physically have the money, and I'm lucky that I am in the age demographic I am. If somebody younger were sick, they couldn't get this assistance.
