Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.
I want to thank both witnesses for coming forward today and for doing an excellent job in not only explaining to this committee many things that you have been researching and working on, but also helping to raise this issue once again and bringing light to an issue that is very important to tens of thousands of men and women across our country. It is through conversations and dialogue like this, and exposing some of the important factors of this, that we will be able to continue to ensure to more people that this is something they shouldn't be embarrassed about; this is something they need to tackle. It is a very serious illness, and I want to thank you for your dedication to that.
I have only a couple of short questions for you. I've been very intrigued with some of the things you've said and some of the questions that have been asked from all the committee members.
When we were talking about children—Mr. Stoffer started it and Ms. Crombie followed up on it—a question came to my mind, because I have a military community in my riding that has military schools. It seems to make sense to me that as one of the things for these children who have parents who are affected by PTSD, and thus they're affected by PTSD...there would be comfort in having others around them who have experienced or are experiencing the same difficulties within their family.
Have you seen any evidence of this, or counterintuitive—
