You're on the right track. Ideally, I believe that your spouse should stay in the armed forces all his life, to receive treatment on a military base and to have a military career spanning 25, 30 or 40 years, and that the armed forces not send him home because they cannot deploy him on a mission any more. The forces should look after him, whether he does nothing or does something else. When CF members go back to civilian life, they have to deal with the same problems as everyone else does on a daily basis, namely finding efficient care, therapists, and so on. There is no problem doing this in Montreal, Toronto or Vancouver, but if you live in North Bay or in Évain in Abitibi, it's not that easy. We are trying to find ways of helping people who live in outlying areas.
