Thank you again, Chair.
I would like to come back to Madame Laverdure. I really appreciate and hear your frustration as you talk about the reality you are facing every single day, how hard you are fighting to get these veterans recognized and how long the delay is.
I have two questions for you. First, do you see a difference for the francophone community by gender—between women and men—in the timelines? I'm curious whether you are seeing anything unique that differentiates those two particular groups.
Second, how long have you been advocating to VAC about the delays you are seeing for the francophone community?
