Mr. Chair, I'm 75, and I might go back and work for nothing for the department, if that would be satisfactory. So make sure that's recorded, please. Thank you.

Mr. Chairman and members of the committee, as I said in the very last paragraph of my brief, I encourage you not to delay but to expedite this review and take the real action that's needed for our veterans and their families, because the time is now. The need is there now.
I ask you, from the bottom of my heart, and the 320,000 members of the Royal Canadian Legion, please look after our veterans and their families.
Thank you.

The Chair Conservative Greg Kerr
I want to thank the witnesses very, very much for their contributions. I know we'll have further dialogue down the road because we need the advice and we appreciate it. Thank you very much today.
We will suspend briefly because we have some business items we have to deal with. Thank you.
