Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would first like to thank the three witnesses who are here with us.
Thank you not just for your participation in the study, but also for your service. You are very inspiring women. I feel spoiled to be participating in the meeting with you this evening.
I would like to address my first question, which will be preceded by a brief preamble, to Senator Patterson. The government made an announcement today concerning the problem of homelessness among veterans. The announcement stated that veterans from Indigenous, LGBT or black communities had more problems with housing. Women veterans were not mentioned at all.
I would like you to tell us about your experience in relation to women veterans and the problem of homelessness.
