Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Good afternoon. I would like to welcome our witnesses and thank them for being with us today.
I hope that you will be able to tell from the number of Conservative members present here today how much interest there is on our side of the House on this particular issue and how much concern for veterans.
I'll begin with the fact that I have some worry that members of the public have been left with the impression over the last number of months that a lot of veterans who apply for mental health disability benefits have to wait many months before they receive mental health support from any source. That's not really what your report said, is it, Mr. Berthelette?
