Yes, there is no question that it needs to start an awful lot earlier, but the key is not to have a whole bunch of people interfering in the veteran's transition. They need to narrow it down to one or maybe two people that the person feels comfortable with, fully understand what their opportunities are and be able to talk to that one individual in those terms. That means you need highly trained people and transition specialists within DND and DVA in order to meet that need.
I will just say briefly to members of Parliament that one day you're going to transition back to being a regular Joe or Jane, so you have to ask yourself how difficult that is. All you need to do is talk to former members of Parliament who were either defeated or left on their own to know how difficult it was to transition back to their regular lives. If you think of it that way, that's exactly what our veterans are going through when they leave the military. There's no difference. They need assistance and they need guidance. They need help in order to move forward.
