Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank our witness for the work he has done over the last 13 years: nine for the former government and four for this government.
You talked a little bit about social determinants of health. I think that's a really important issue regarding veterans' recovery and mental well-being. It deals with family, community, and employment. In terms of a lot of these recommendations, it's easy to recommend something, but to include also how to implement those recommendations is really important.
There has been some discussion at committee about the possibility of employment opportunities for veterans, with DND or the federal public service, and that goes a little bit around to what you've talked about as far as economics are concerned. I don't think the mental well-being of a veteran is enhanced just by increasing pensions and giving more money. I think there has to be more to it than that.
Could you just develop on that statement?
