Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I wonder if perhaps both of you might attempt to answer my question. Sexual assault or trauma in the military can be a significant cause of PTSD or other mental health issues. We had Brigadier-General Hugh MacKay, surgeon general of the Canadian Armed Forces, testify before this committee last Tuesday. He said that PTSD or other mental health issues resulting from sexual assault or trauma of military members are not considered operational stress injuries. Could you comment on how that perspective might well impact the mental health of a CF member who was assaulted and injured while on duty serving with the military?
