Thank you, sir.
Along with my colleague Mr. Sweet, it's the first I've heard of the Royal Canadian Legion and other groups getting together to form at least some form of alliance. On the surface, that is something I think should be pursued with great vigour, because I think it's a wonderful suggestion to put everything under one tent and at the same time to maintain your own identity.
Sir, just as a sidebar, I received a call the other day from some guys who were on the HMCS Bonnie during the Cuban missile crisis. One thing they mentioned was that they were never formally recognized with a medal for the so-called Cold War effort. They were wondering if it's at all possible if one could be struck.
It's the first time I've heard of that request. I'm just wondering what you think of that. Would it be feasible, advisable, or even possible for the government now to recognize the so-called Cold War veterans who served, especially during the Cuban missile crisis?
I know it's an off-the-topic question, but I figured, while you're here, you might be able to help me out on this.
