I am talking about the ones who are injured. The media covers all those who die or get killed. But injured veterans are kept in hiding everywhere. In Valcartier, they are kept outside the fence, for example.
I have the following question. Let's say someone in a wheelchair who has to stay home receives the maximum amount. What happens when this person gets older? These are not lifetime pensions. Those who are injured get a lump sum, but when they need help, they have to pay for it themselves. When injured veterans get a large sum, do they have to pay for the help they need?
That could include any assistance they might need at home, for example. After WW2, I had hip surgery. The first time, I got all possible help and equipment at home. But when I had my left hip operation, that was no longer the case.
Some soldiers come back with serious injuries and they can't even walk. You can't give them a job because they are not able to work. But some can work, although they are injured and are missing two legs. They have the education they need. Isn't there a way to recommend that public servants hurry up and eliminate prejudice against veterans? Veterans are not welcome, because they are regarded as people who steal jobs and have large pensions. Public servants are completely against the idea of hiring them, and that's a proven fact.
