Thank you, Mr. Chair.
When the Ombudsman published "Meeting Expectations: Timely and Transparent Decisions for Canada’s Ill and Injured Veterans", a report that I would call incendiary, the gap between the number of francophones and anglophones became clear in the recruitment problems. However, the gap between men and women was less obvious, and is even less so now.
Nevertheless, I found your testimony very moving and distressing. In the report, there were no references to the LGBTQ2+ community or to First Nations, which rather puts the whole effort in a negative light.
My question may be somewhat odd, but do you not have the impression that Veterans Affairs Canada caused more harm to the LGBTQ2+ community than to women veterans?
