They don't have access to funeral and burial benefits. I presume you have read the report of the Office of the Veterans Ombudsman on funeral and burial benefits. They don't have access to that, while traditional veterans do. There are some restrictions on VIP. We could add that the RCMP, as a group, doesn't have access to VIP. So there are some anomalies in the provision of services to people who would be qualified as veterans.
