That's a great question. It's something I've asked time and again. The release process takes time. You don't just medically release tomorrow. There's often six months to a year timeframe, or longer sometimes. There is a period here. There is a window in which we should be doing this right off the bat, making that transition somewhat seamless, if not entirely. We can begin to put in place these processes early so that, at the end of the day, a veteran doesn't have to leave their family, the Department of National Defence, and retell their story time and again in an entirely new world.
