Right. Okay. Great.
I'm just going to quote Mr. Butler, assistant deputy minister of Veterans Affairs. He made a statement to us: “...the financial, physical, and mental well-being of eligible veterans and their families is our goal and the strategic outcome to which many of the programs and services of Veterans Affairs Canada contribute.”
It sounds wonderful and it is the overarching philosophy, I believe. However, we talk about things being tailored to their needs because everyone is different, and then we talk about the commonality of issues, even in our study. Internationally, we all struggle with transition and suicide.
If we wanted to take care of that cohort on the bottom end who are never satisfied, for whatever reasons of difficulty they face, would we not be wise to better define what the outcomes are so that when someone enlists, whatever happens to them, whether injured or choosing to leave, they know that this is what the country is going to do for them?
