This goes back to another report I published last year that was looking for a new governance model for this organization. As I said, there are very few levers we can pull. Even with evidence-based information, we're not getting the traction that I think some of these reports warrant. We can suggest, recommend, and pressure as much as we can, but at the end of the day, the decisions will be made by the Minister of National Defence and the chief of defence staff.
I believe the issues we're talking about are of a national security concern. If we cannot continue to take care of our members and make sure that those who become ill or injured are taken care of, and put them in the right place. I've used this phrase before in front of this committee. It was George Washington who once said that the willingness of any young man—given the time and space he said it—to participate in a war, no matter how justified, will be dependent on how we treat our veterans.
I think these issues are of a national concern. I believe that this body, and others, have a right to have full detail of what's going on and to help anyone in this position to move those things forward.
