You'll notice that one of the things we talk about quite prominently is the need for veterans and their families to have an ombudsman. In your report--and I'm sure this must have been a slip--you don't say the word “families” at all. The reason I say that is if a veteran dies and his spouse is left behind, who could she then turn to? Our thinking, of course, was that the spouse or the child of a veteran should be able to turn to an ombudsman as well, in order to seek assistance.
Is it part of your mandate to not only help the veterans but their spouses and children as well?
