I know some of you were there last evening. We've had some very good testimony from our witnesses. As I mentioned in my opening remarks yesterday, what we have in front of us as a committee, and what we will ultimately have in front of us in the House when the bill goes back to the House, are very concrete measures that are aimed at benefiting veterans. When they pass into law, veterans will benefit from these measures.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4141019\" data-originallang=\"en\">Your testimony is much appreciated. It is acknowledged that this is not the end of the work. In other words, this is not the end of the line. This is a beginning, in a sense, but the measures are very concrete in nature.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4141020\" data-originallang=\"en\"> What I've heard most witnesses say is that they support the measures as they are presented. They might have suggested changes, but they support what is contained within the legislation moving forward so that veterans will actually benefit.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4141021\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Perhaps I'll just ask Mr. Blackwolf. Would it be an accurate representation of your position that what is in front of us would be of benefit to veterans and should move forward?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4141017\" data-originallang=\"en\">Merci.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4141018\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais remercier nos t\u00e9moins d'\u00eatre venus ce soir. Je sais que certains d'entre vous sont venus hier soir \u00e9galement. Nous avons recueilli d'excellents t\u00e9moignages. Comme je l'ai indiqu\u00e9 dans mes observations hier, ce dont nous sommes saisis ici, et ce qui retournera \u00e0 la Chambre avec le projet de loi, sont des mesures concr\u00e8tes qui visent \u00e0 aider les anciens combattants. Une fois que ces mesures seront adopt\u00e9es, les anciens combattants en b\u00e9n\u00e9ficieront.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4141019\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous vous remercions de votre t\u00e9moignage. Nous savons que le travail n'est pas termin\u00e9 pour autant. En d'autres termes, ce n'est pas la fin. C'est un d\u00e9but, dans un sens, mais il s'agit de mesures concr\u00e8tes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4141020\" data-originallang=\"en\">La plupart des t\u00e9moins ont indiqu\u00e9 qu'ils \u00e9taient en faveur des mesures telles qu'elles sont pr\u00e9sent\u00e9es. Ils auraient peut-\u00eatre propos\u00e9 certains changements, mais ils sont en faveur des dispositions contenues dans le projet de loi dont les anciens combattants b\u00e9n\u00e9ficieront r\u00e9ellement.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4141021\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais poser une question \u00e0 M. Blackwolf. \u00cates-vous d'accord pour dire que les propositions seraient avantageuses pour les anciens combattants et devraient \u00eatre adopt\u00e9es?</p>"
