Thank you, Mr. Chair.
It's a pleasure to welcome our guests this evening. Again, like my colleagues, I thank you for the service you provide and the care you provide to veterans across this country.
The questions I have could apply to many of you, but I'd like to direct some questions to the retirees federation group. For any one of you who wants to respond, that's fine.
Mr. President, on your website, it states that one of the top five priorities for the outcomes of veterans is to “Rebuild trust with veterans by improving outcome and communications, particularly by working with national service providers, not-profit and community-based organizations.”
What are the challenges you see when it comes to communication, and have you seen any differences between genders, including the LGBTQ2+ veterans community?
Mr. Soulière.
