There definitely needs to be awareness raised among them, and perhaps some trials. I don't have the answer for that, because it's such a vast area out there that you're talking about in terms of employers. It could be a small company. It could be a large company. It could be an individual owner hiring a veteran, so it's really hard to say how to get over that prejudice, but I think the third party contract should be able to help with that, if what they're saying they're responsible for is going to happen.
For example, I know they're doing outreach to a lot of different companies and seeing about hiring veterans, so I'm hoping they're also educating them at the same time. I know departments like Veterans Affairs and National Defence are well aware of veterans—they've hired them for many years—and know what they've done in their service. I'm hoping all government departments can be educated about that, because there are some jobs out there that are transferable between departments. It's not just Veterans Affairs or DND that can hire veterans. I think it needs to be widespread.
