Evidence of meeting #34 for Veterans Affairs in the 39th Parliament, 1st Session. (The original version is on Parliament’s site, as are the minutes.) The winning word was rights.
A recording is available from Parliament.
The Clerk of the Committee Mr. Alexandre Roger
Now the committee will report to the House, and it will be up to the House to decide to name this the room.

We've had a vote. Is there something written that we need to prepare?
The Clerk
I will prepare the report for the chair. The chair will present that in the House, as the report for the ombudsman. It's the same deal. It will be a one-page deal that the chair reports to the House.

The Chair Conservative Rob Anders
That's why we pay the clerk the big bucks. He's got the answers to these questions, bless his heart, and he knows where everybody is, including Mr. Stoffer.

There must be some great pictures of the Vimy memorial now. A nice picture of that somewhere in here would just be beautiful.
Conservative
Betty Hinton Conservative Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo, BC
I'm more than willing to donate some pictures. I have some beautiful photos.
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Rob Anders
We were just joking previously about some of the lovely stuff that's with the nurses and what not, and the women who served in the auxiliary forces and so on during the Second World War. That's nice art as well. It's poster art, but still it's quite lovely. There are lots of options out there. We'll have to work with the Speaker.
Go ahead, Monsieur Perron.

Moreover, we mustn't forget the photos of World War I, the Korean War and the various theatres of operation in which veterans have served.
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Rob Anders
Monsieur Perron raises a fair point, that when veterans come to testify, they'll want to see their areas of conflict reflected in the art, so we probably should be sensitive to having something from all the various ages and veterans groups represented. That's a good idea.
I think that exhausts this meeting. In the next meeting we'll be dealing with Mr. St. Denis' motion, which I sense he's still laboriously working on. Good for him. Then we'll proceed with the health care review.
Go ahead, Mr. Shipley.
Conservative
Bev Shipley Conservative Lambton—Kent—Middlesex, ON
If we have the motion, that won't take the whole event. Will we have witnesses?
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Rob Anders
I sense we'll have witnesses who will continue with PTSD. There are three people from the department who deal with PTSD. We'll try to get them for the next meeting.
The meeting is adjourned.
