Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.
Veterans Affairs committee We'd certainly like to speak to those individuals to better understand what those situations might be and, if appropriate, to make recommendations in that regard.

Veterans Affairs committee One of the complaints we received from reservists was related to how their time served in qualifying for that benefit is computed. It's one of the areas we're going to look at.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee The program is good news. How it plays out for reservists is something we plan to look at.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee Yes. It would be very encouraging to see that reflected in program changes going forward.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee We noted in the last budget that there had been money allocated to marriage after 60. What we don't know yet is how that money will be distributed to veterans or survivors and what the program might look like. We have had concern expressed to us around what that program might look like.

Veterans Affairs committee Sharon mentioned this earlier and it's really part of the transition group stand-up and pilot, where the intent is to provide different levels of support to veterans depending on how much support they need, but it's still in the pilot stage.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee No, we haven't had a chance to visit the pilot yet, but it's still quite early.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee No. We're at the point of starting to scope so we recognize it because we've heard from veterans that it's an issue, but apart from anecdotal stories, we haven't had a chance to really examine this in a deep way. We're going to do that work first. We're going to do a qualitative study.

Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee Within a week or two of being appointed, I had the chance to attend the transition group's stand-up. Having myself transitioned, I think the notion that we should be having all of the programs and services in place at the time of release and we should be doing everything we can to ensure that serving members and their families can transition successfully is a great idea.

Veterans Affairs committee That's right.

Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee —which would be very welcome.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee Yes. That's based on previous work the office had done.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee Am I looking at the right one, Sharon?
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Craig L. Dalton
Veterans Affairs committee Okay. What was the question?
