January VIIIth, MMXV

Hon. Gordon Dirks, B. Ed., M. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Calgary-Elbow

Dear Gordon:

We have Ted Opitz, MP showing citizens that when veterans have poorer health, both they & their families can suffer for it, leading to health stresses and worries for families about how to pay bills, etc. Ted as a Canadian Armed Forces veteran himself wants that fixed. This is so that these military family unit stay focused on don't break down & place themselves in utter chaos & despair.

"As a Veteran, I recognize firsthand the vital role that families play in the lives of Canada's men & women in uniform, & how Veterans' health issues can impact those who stand by their side. It is important that we learn about these impacts on spouses and children once military personnel transfer out of active military service."

Number CCXX (220),

Rory
