Mr. Speaker, when it comes to the services we have provided to veterans across this country, since 2016 our government has invested more than $11.5 billion in additional services and supports to help our veterans and their families. Unlike the previous Conservative government, we have acted. The previous Conservative government closed veterans affairs offices across this country, and the first thing we did was reopen all nine offices. Plus, we opened an additional one. The Conservatives also slashed the public service by 1,000 people, a public service that provided direct supports to veterans.
We will absolutely always be there for veterans and their families.
