Thank you.
It is extraordinarily frustrating when questions are asked, answers are provided through recommendations, then recommendations are ignored. I feel as if we're asking the questions that have been answered already in reports to Parliament.
You referred to health care for the families of serving members as a matter of “national security”. I think that was well put. We are in a crisis of recruitment, and this is a factor in retaining personnel. One of the recommendations made to Parliament in the Veterans Affairs report of 2017 was this: “That the Canadian Armed Forces further integrate family members into their mental health and suicide prevention programs.”
Has that happened with the Canadian Forces?
