Thank you very much.
I am the daughter of a veteran. My father and my uncle went to war, so I understand where you are coming from. When he came back from the war, my father always told us that he went to war for the family that he hoped to have, so that I would have the right to be here as a francophone woman defending values.
I find it somewhat annoying when you say that you have a program based on needs and yet you roll over and say that you have to choose from three principles. I believe that the person who fights in Afghanistan or in Korea is doing so to defend freedom, and it has nothing to do with whether or not he is married, has children, etc. That is my political opinion.
You talked about compensation for the victims of Agent Orange. During the last war, everybody was talking about it; I am not talking about orange juice.
Does your charter include all of the problems with military bases? The municipality of Shannon made the headlines last spring because the people who lived around the base were suffering from strange cancers. Nobody ever thought to check the soldiers who used to live on the base. Do you intend to track down all of the individuals who lived on military bases and who experienced problems linked to a substance with some scientific name that I do not know?
I would like to hear your opinion.
