Mr. Speaker, I have two petitions.
The first petition is in regard to what is happening to veterans and members of the Canadian Forces all across this country.
First, the petitioners are concerned about the closure of nine regional offices for Veterans Affairs, and second, the fact that the number of suicides among Canadian Forces personnel and veterans has increased to an alarming rate. The petitioners call upon the Government of Canada to address the needs of Canadian Forces members by making sure that they and veterans have timely access to mental health services.
