Mr. Speaker, the government has not forgotten the needs of any veteran in this country. The government has been seized with this issue.
I can assure the member that the department continues to be engaged in this issue and has been engaged in this issue for over a year now. When we made the announcement last May we were not able to proceed for all because of the fiscal reality. However I assure the member that we have not forgotten any veteran for any need he or she may have.
