Mr. Chairman, I'll pause for a second and recommend to the committee, if it's at all possible, that she get a copy of that report. If there is a documented report of the inquiry, I believe the family should have a copy. It shows that what happened to Sheila Fynes' son in the barracks in Edmonton is not an isolated case.
This is the second time in less than two months that we have heard testimony from a mother of a soldier who committed suicide that they were not told that their son had attempted suicide in the past. I know that happened a few years ago, and we heard testimony from the officers here the other day about what they're doing, but it would be very helpful if we could send Linda's testimony to those two officers and ask them what is being done now to make sure this never happens again.
They made it sound as if this can't happen, and I want to be absolutely sure that Linda's testimony is taken into consideration so that no other family has to go through that again.
I think it would be helpful, Mr. Chairman, one, for her to get a copy of any written report that was done, and two, to be assured, from the testimony of the two officers before, that they get a copy of the blues here, so that they can comment and say, “Yes, these mistakes may have happened, but they will not happen again”. That's just so we can be assured of moving forward.
I'll stop right there.
