Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Welcome to our guest, Mr. Clark, and thank you for your service and the things you do on behalf of veterans and Legions across the country.
Like you and many other Canadians, I too was disgusted to see such blatant disrespect for the National War Memorial site in Ottawa and was very disturbed to see what was going on.
I'd like to focus my attention a little bit on Legions and what they do for our communities across the country. Thank you for everything you do to work with the Legions across Canada. In fact, I have 10 Legions in my riding of Bonavista—Burin—Trinity. I'm so proud of the work that they do for veterans, active military members and their families, and the community at large.
I'm wondering if you could explain some of the services that Legions offer and why you think it is important to keep local Legions at the heart of our local communities.
