Thank you very much, Chair.
Thank you to the three of you for what you're bringing to the table today. I appreciate the service that is represented here, as well, on behalf of Canada.
Mr. Leboeuf, I'm very curious. You're very open and honest about the dynamics of not being able to be the face of your business. You needed to transition to having your wife have more of that role in order to be recognized to a certain degree. We have heard from other witnesses very carefully stating that they are veterans, but the funding is more targeted to specific groups such as women, indigenous and Black. That's no problem, but you asked about the veterans. I heard, “What about the veterans?” Veterans are unique, as you've mentioned, and have so much capability and promise.
Is part of the dynamic I'm hearing here to recognize them as veterans to enable them, but at the same time give them the freedom they need to be able to make those choices that are being inhibited from them at this point in time? Is that a fair question?
