I would just like to add this. We travelled to Wellington, New Zealand, for the International Forum of Veterans Affairs Ministers. The other countries at the table were very interested in our new Charter. They saw it as progress. They are monitoring what is being done in this country. They are assessing the progress we are making and how we have achieved that progress. Of course, a charter is constantly evolving. We have pledged to monitor that evolution. As gaps appear, we will need the necessary insight to correct the Charter on behalf of all our veterans. In terms of what it offers, Canada is very well thought of by the other countries.
