However, there is also no denying that the government continues to appeal a decision in court on veterans\u2019 cases. That is also a fact.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4400046\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Let me go back to our amendment. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4400047\" data-originallang=\"fr\">If the amendment is not passed, the current practices will continue. The government would rather continue to force veterans with permanent medical conditions\u2014we are not talking about a condition that may change\u2014to provide information about that condition every year under the excuse that some may move and they would need to be contacted to confirm some information. That makes no sense to me.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4400048\" data-originallang=\"fr\">If we want to put an end to this insult of asking veterans to justify the loss of a leg year after year, then this is the amendment that we have to pass.</p>",

Cependant, on ne peut pas nier que le gouvernement continue \u00e0 interjeter appel d'une d\u00e9cision devant les tribunaux sur des causes d'anciens combattants. Cela aussi, c'est un fait.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4400046\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Je reviens \u00e0 notre amendement.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4400047\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Si l'amendement n'est pas adopt\u00e9, les pratiques actuelles continueront \u00e0 \u00eatre appliqu\u00e9es.

Pour moi, cela n'a aucun sens.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4400048\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Si l'on veut mettre fin \u00e0 cette insulte qui consiste \u00e0 demander \u00e0 d'anciens combattants de justifier, ann\u00e9e apr\u00e8s ann\u00e9e, la perte d'une jambe, c'est l'amendement qu'il faut adopter.</p>"
