No, we're not. We're not, for our widows. We feel that we have not been treated fairly by the government. A public inquiry would help clear it up for the widows and all the victims of agent orange. We've not been happy with how the whole thing has been handled. We would like to see an investigation into the ex gratia payment, how it was formed, how it was disbursed, how the cheques were disbursed, the major diseases that were presented. We're hearing all kinds of stories in our areas about cheques being handed out, for example, for carpal tunnel, being hard of hearing, and things that are not on that list. We're hearing all kinds of stories about that.
We're talking to people. As a matter of fact, we have some letters signed by people who received $20,000, for example, for carpal tunnel. We have the proof here.
So we're not agreeing with how the ex gratia was set up, how it was handled, or how the cheques were disbursed. We're not agreeing with that. If we did not have that proof we wouldn't bring it up, but we do. It's available, if you would like to look at it afterward.
So we're not happy with that and we're not just an ex gratia group. What we want is fairness.
