Yes, I certainly would support legislation that would address occupational injuries. I think one of the things that isn't realized by a lot of Canadians is the type of work we do, and the fact that this is a cumulative effect. As I mentioned in the presentation, this isn't just necessarily a one-time incident; it can develop over a series of years, or over a career. We really need to make sure there are supports in place for people in these positions. As I mentioned in my presentation, it does have the ability to change you and how you see the world. I can say, even from my own perspective of having been a parole officer, my wife over the first number of years of marriage would say, “David, why are you so particular on this? Why do you have to lock the front door when we're home? Why are you on me about setting the alarm?” It's simple little things like that, but you really start to understand. In my presentation I talked about how I had lived a sheltered life. When I came into this job I realized that the world isn't necessarily as friendly a place as I had thought.
So I think, certainly, we need to make sure the people who are doing this type of work, these other occupational groups that aren't as well-known as police and firefighters and paramedics, are taken care of as well.
