Thanks, Chair, and thanks to both of you for being here.
As you're aware, Dr. Nevin and Dr. Ritchie, we're now at a point where in Canada only about 5% of our armed forces are given this particular drug. Looking forward, and due to I think a great deal of pressure, the surgeon general and Health Canada have come around, to some degree, on these issues.
Our concern here is veterans who were forced to take this drug in the past. In your opinion, what should the Canadian Armed Forces be doing, then, specifically, in regard to assisting these veterans? As an example, are our one-hour mental health appointments at all effective? This is what's being given to our veterans in the early stages of PTSD, TBI or mefloquine poisoning. Does it go far enough? Do you have suggestions for programming for Canada that we should be investing in?
