Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for coming, Helen, and thank you, Captain, for your service to your country. You've been tremendous moral support to your wife today, and I am sure she has been tremendous moral support to you as you've done your job for our country. It's nice to see.
I've been making a number of notes. I listened quite carefully to what you were saying. I certainly have heard from other witnesses regarding a manual or handbook. I think that's actually a very good idea, and it's something that as the veterans affairs committee, we could certainly put forward .
The other thing you mentioned that has to do with treatment of veterans, which is what we're really here about, is that you'd like to see an exclusion of travel time from the number of hours allotted for treatment. That seems like a reasonable thing as well, because if you're a therapist and you have to travel an hour and a half to get to that veteran, it shouldn't come off his occupational time. So that's something we could certainly have a good look at here.
You made some other comments today, though. Let's go back to the medical discharge, someone who is medically discharged from the military, because that person is truly a veteran. That person has been medically discharged, so now we have a problem that we have to help them with. And they're going to move—I'm using your example of the move to Manitoba.
Is there anything standing in the way of a veteran's gathering his medical treatment plan from his current therapist and asking the therapist for a recommendation to another therapist in the new community? Is there anything that prevents that from happening?
