That's a good question.
I can speak in regard to the RCMP. Interestingly enough, I was at the policy centre, and I tried for some liaison with the military--they opened their clinic recently--but, boy, I couldn't. I mean, the RCMP in the book says we are allowed to go there, but it was so complicated.
Unfortunately, my big brother the military could not help the RCMP in regard to liaison. We had to go à la carte.
The other thing is that of course we professional doctors do liaise one by one. I have a few military colleagues with whom I've spoken, etc., but nothing officially. And yes, I agree with you that the military spends a lot of money on that, the RCMP, and we should sit down and.... There are also a lot of universities with whom we should liaise some coordination. I know that the U.S., etc., had some committees.
So there are a lot of people. How much of this is duplication? How much of this is working on the same vision? It's difficult to know. As the occupational physician in charge of the RCMP, I had problems not with the doctors but with, “Robert, get a PO, an invoice, so I can speak to you”, and so on.
