Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to start with a brief comment before asking my first question. That comment is similar to what Ms. McPherson said earlier. For lack of time, she was interrupted when she was discussing the issue of women.
We are completing a study on veterans following 23 meetings. This is the biggest study ever conducted on the subject. Many women, if not the majority of those who spoke, said they didn't feel recognized or appropriately honoured. It seems to me this kind of recognition is a truly important form of support. It also forms the basis of the relationship of trust that must exist between women and the Department of Veterans Affairs so that all those big, beautiful programs, which my colleague Mr. Casey mentioned earlier, can be put in place, function and yield the desired results.
However, we see from our report that there's unfortunately not much positive content in the comments that women made regarding their experience with the Department of Veterans Affairs and the transition they were undertaking to civilian life. That was the comment I wanted to make.
Mr. Harris, following on from what I just said, a report was released six years ago. Here we are now, six years later. It's always unfortunate that it takes this long in our system. What about this program? What's in it?
