Good afternoon, Mr. Chairman.
I'd like to introduce my colleague Claude DeBellefeuille, who is joining us today. Even though she has a male given name, she's a woman.
Brian, thanks for being here.
Brian, you're going to have to explain one thing to me once and for all so that I can understand.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police receives payments from veterans. Will these people one day be entitled to the Veterans Charter? Are they entitled to the VIP? If not, we're going to start feeling pressure from the RCMP people. If so, that will result in considerable expense.
I'd like to hear your comments on the subject.
