Veterans Affairs committee  At the Canadian Air Force; it's in the Canadian Air Force books.

Veterans Affairs committee  Or not the air force, sorry, it's the military books: DND.

Veterans Affairs committee  I didn't know about it either.

Veterans Affairs committee  It's pretty tough when you're going through living hell to worry about money too. You're dealing with a crazy husband and you're trying to keep your kids safe and happy, which is next to impossible with a raving husband. He's getting shut out from the military because he's sick,

Veterans Affairs committee  I have talked directly to practitioners, and they're telling me yes.

Veterans Affairs committee  Somebody asked me a question about why they were announcing all these new services last year. The last government was wonderful for announcing these wonderful new services, but they were not accessible. Only about a hundred people in the whole country would qualify. It sounded gr

Veterans Affairs committee  That's awesome.

Veterans Affairs committee  Actually, I did some work on it before I came, because this is an important issue. I will not lose the quality of life we have gained because of my husband being on medical marijuana. If I have to go out and pay for it myself and buy it off the streets, so be it, but I will not e

Veterans Affairs committee  OSISS is invaluable. There is one OSISS woman here in Saskatchewan, and she has saved my husband's and many veterans' lives.

Out here we don't have physiotherapists and psychologists in the office. Are you kidding? I heard that, and I went, “Really?” We have nothing. We

Veterans Affairs committee  The JPSU didn't exist in my husband's time. It was the SPHL. Being released from the forces back in what I call the “dark days”—I think he got out in 2008—was horrific. SPHL was brought out and the case managers were just kind of feeling their way. It was horrific. I had to do al

Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you, because I just phoned Veterans Affairs about that very question. Of course they admit to nothing, but I know that at one time they used to rotate the case managers and the client service workers so you couldn't work with the same person for more than six months. They w

Veterans Affairs committee  We all wonder. And you're starting to sound like a veteran.

Veterans Affairs committee  There are veterans in crisis near me who aren't actually members of the Legion. When we approached the Legion to get help for them, they looked me in the face and told me the poppy fund is not for veterans; it's for the community. I know of all these veterans in huge need but the
