I'm under the impression that this is being addressed by the various committees in Veterans Affairs Canada. The Gerontological Advisory Council has indicated that a veteran is a veteran is a veteran.
Although I appreciate the different status of veterans, whether they be World War I, World War II, Korea, and then the different United Nations veterans and other veterans who began in 1953, 1956, I'm under the impression that before long—when I say before long, I gather it's up to Parliament—there will be a relatively new system where veterans will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
Keeping the Promise, the gerontological report that was 10 years in the making, indicated that the veterans will be served as to what they need, as opposed to what they qualify for. For instance, if a veteran needs a long-term care bed in a facility, that veteran will get it, and if he or she needs help staying in the home, they will get that also.
