I call the meeting to order.
I welcome everyone here today. This is the 33rd meeting of the Standing Committee on Veterans Affairs. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are studying combat stress and its consequences on the mental health of veterans and their families.
I welcome our witnesses. From the Royal Canadian Legion we have Brad White, dominion secretary, and Andrea Siew, service officer. From the Royal Canadian Mounted Police we have Murray Brown, staff relations representative, occupational health and safety.
Mr. White, you're first on the docket. I will ask you to make your presentation, followed by Mr. Brown. Then we can ask questions around the table.
