Welcome to the 30th meeting of the Standing Committee on Veterans Affairs.
This morning we have with us Wilf Edmond and Pierre Allard from the Royal Canadian Legion. We are focusing on a review of the new veterans charter and they'll be giving testimony this morning in that regard.
Mr. Edmond, since both of you have opening remarks I will leave it to you as to who will go first and second. I know that Mr. Allard is very familiar with the question rotation of the committee.
However, Mr. Stoffer has asked for 30 seconds prior to that, so perhaps you will give me a little bit of patience.
Mr. Stoffer.
