Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Edmond and Mr. Allard, for being with us today. We've talked about this in the committee for some time and we're delighted that we're back into the review process. It's something that we've set as an extremely important priority because there are some significant challenges out there.
I appreciate your continuing candour, Pierre. It's always refreshing.
There are a couple of things I'd like to focus on. I think they're important. We know there's a review process under way. We also know that there's a separate look at all the programs in Veterans Affairs, where they are being studied right now. Therefore, the timing is absolutely critical, I think, to hit the next spring timetable.
We've had some candid discussions before about the Veterans Affairs interpretation, your interpretation, and so on. I think that's healthy. Whether we always agree is not necessarily important. If you were making recommendations today, if you were king, and assuming we can't get all of it done tomorrow, what I would like to hear you say is how you would order the list of essential priorities.
