I call the committee to order.
As everybody knows, we're doing the comparison study on services and benefits offered to veterans by Canada and its allies. We're very pleased this morning to have Dave Rutter, head of armed forces and veterans' health with the Department of Health in Britain. I'm sure things are fine in London and the weather is perfect. We're glad to have you with us today.
Our process is that we'll ask you to give an opening statement, around 10 minutes or so, but it's your time call. Then the committee members will ask you some questions, and we'll all go home happy.
Are you ready for this?
