Good day, ladies and gentlemen. It is yet another glorious day for the Standing Committee on Veterans Affairs.
Today we have, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), for our study on the veterans ombudsman, the Canadian Peacekeeping Veterans Association. We have Tom Hoppe, national president, and Larry Gollner, special assignments.
I will let you gentlemen know that you have 20 minutes. You can split that up as 10 minutes apiece if you like, or you can do whatever slice and dice you want. Afterwards it's opened up to questions from the floor corresponding to what we have here. And hopefully you'll have a chance to address some of the questions or the schematic that's been laid out by our researcher. Hopefully you have copies of that.
Gentlemen, the floor is yours.
