Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
One would think his parliamentary secretary would have better answers for his failure on this file by now.
Now that his deep cuts to service delivery have been exposed, the minister is scrambling to refill these front-line positions, including in the communities where he closed regional VAC offices. However, we still see evidence that the most serious cuts have been to staff delivering benefits and that money is going from the front line to his backroom.
Why do our veterans have to beg for the services they deserve?
