I appreciate that, Mr. Fynes.
In your opening statement, you mentioned a paradigm shift that you had seen. I want to touch on that.
As Mr. Casey said earlier, I think all the members of the committee, regardless of party, are doing this study because we think it's very important. We want to make sure veterans in our country get the support they need and that we reduce the incidence of suicide among veterans in this country, which has been constant for 50 years. That's unacceptable to us as a committee, and that's why we're doing this study, among other things.
Mr. Fynes, can you elaborate on the point you made earlier about what you see as a paradigm shift? What should we be doing as parliamentarians, as a committee to make sure that both veterans and their families have access to the support they need and make sure we can reduce those incidents? That is the point of this study.
