I think the only part that I would add is that I think you're absolutely right, James. The issue is for all of those more recent veterans, because ultimately you want to stay a participating member in society. You want to carry on. You want to be able to earn a decent living and support your family.
I guess what I have found really frustrating in all the years that I've dealt with Veterans Affairs is really, as I mentioned earlier, the interface between DND and Veterans Affairs, which is well known. It is also an extremely well-known fact that the longer you wait before there is an early intervention, the lower the opportunities, and the less chance of the individual ever coming back to work.
I would really strongly encourage somebody to take the leadership and ask, “What is it that we have to do?”, recognizing that we have a very clear and prescribed problem that is giving us all of these challenges and is radically contributing to our problem for all of the new veterans. Somebody needs to ask, “What do we have to do to actually solve this problem?” In my view, it would not be all that difficult.
So that would be one part that I would really strongly suggest, and say, “Look, all of the new and emerging evidence and the radically different groups of veterans require us today to take radically different steps than what we took in the past to address this challenge.” Somebody simply has to say, “Look, this is the problem. We know what the problem is, we know what the consequences are, we know the impact that we could have by taking an approach that's outside the box. Let's get on with making that happen, so that people don't pay an unnecessary price.”
