Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Thank you to all of our witnesses for being here today, for your testimony and for your service. I really want to say that off the top.
Mr. Hurley, I want to touch on some things you mentioned in your opening statement around psychedelics and the work that you're doing and also hoping to do. I think, over the course of this study, we've heard this issue come up more than once, without question. Just last week on Remembrance Day, I was at a Legion in my riding, and a veteran came up to me and was talking to me about the value of ketamine in his life and his recovery. There's no question that it's an issue that is out there and that people see value in it.
I'm just curious. I hope I wrote this down correctly when you mentioned it: veteran accelerated access research program. I know you talked about it a bit in your opening statement, but could you elaborate for us what your vision is for that? How you think it would help? What do you think VAC and the government could do to make that happen?
