Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Joanne, for being here today. I want to thank your husband John, as well, for the service he's provided to our country.
I know it must be difficult to take time away from your husband in order to come here and educate us on the issues at hand. I have to commend you. You're helping others. You want some help now, too, but you're trying to be a spokesperson for the veterans we don't hear from all the time, quite frankly. I really want to thank you for that. I think it's important that this is here before the committee.
Most of the time, what I've found in committees—I've been here since 2019, not always on this committee—is that we do a lot of studies. Usually, something is picked up from the media, more so than the actual study getting accepted. Sometimes we see change. Maybe that's something that could happen today. Meeting us is fantastic. It's good to get out there. You seem to be meeting all the stakeholders. You said earlier that you met with the minister.
When did you meet with the minister?
