Thank you, Minister, for sharing that with the committee.
Through the chair to the minister, I think we were all quite disappointed to see the Conservative voting in the House last week on the supplementary estimates. These are measures that are essential to supporting Canadians from coast to coast to coast, whether it's funding, as you mentioned earlier, to support the construction of new affordable housing or even the brand new 988 mental health crisis line.
I have to say, though, in this committee, I'm quite shocked at the fact that Conservatives also voted against funding to the Veterans Review and Appeal Board.
Minister, can you share with this committee what those funds are used for and how you reacted to this vote from the Conservative Party?
