That is, of course, the dilemma we face. Any time we deal with veterans.... Don't forget that there are 980 current service personnel receiving a veteran's pension. If we were dealing with pension issues, we would be dealing with people who currently serve in the military. There is always that dichotomy. How do we rectify that situation between the veterans committee--if we're dealing on veterans issues--and those who are currently serving? This is one of those issues.
I think if we are going to discuss the issue of suicide, then we also have to touch on the aspect of prevention of suicide, and the ability to see what DND is doing in order to assist those who may be contemplating suicide as the only way out of their problems.
Either way we look at it, DND officials will be invited to discuss this issue, I assume.
