Thank you for the question.
The testimony we've heard from more than 20 women, who have bravely come forward to this committee to share their stories, will go a long way in helping us to make changes, both within Veterans Affairs Canada and the Canadian Armed Forces. Their testimony was powerful. Being here today is an opportunity for us to thank not only this committee but also all those witnesses who came forward to share their powerful stories so that we can learn more.
We're also, on our part, collecting those stories. We're meeting with women veterans as often as we can to discuss the topics that are important to them. It's also to record their stories and to share their stories out. We've been told that storytelling is important so that they're connected to their community and they understand that they're not alone in what they've experienced in service and post-service life.
Thank you.
