Well it seems Fantino doesn't have enough of a crutch in Gen. Nat., now he has second one, Stephen Lecce.

That ain't damage control, it's a freaking puppet show in the infirmary. Hell, why bother going to the circus anymore? pinger.

Well that makes sense, since we all know where they get their marching orders from, in other words, even if they wanted to make a difference, any changes will have to be approved from the very top, and we all know where that individual stands.

Yup, he will be just like the others, I remember when Vice Admiral Murray had the job, I knew Murray well and had a great deal of respect for what he did while serving, however with VAC is was just like the rest, a real disappointment.

I wonder if General Walter will make a difference as Fantino's 2i/c. I think it's more smoke and mirrors and he'll drink the kool-aid like the rest of them.

pinger,

I agree of what you speak.

We are stuck between a rock and a hard place, ABC but what does the others have to offer.
So far I heard that Trudeau is going to re open all the VAC offices that were closed, I say put that on paper.

Does anyone here know where all this so called money that the government claims to have slated in the past budgets for Veterans ?
They claim to have increased the past budgets, they closed DVA offices, cut staff, where is all of these funds going ?
Something is wrong with this picture, my head is shaking trying to understand what is going on here.
I am starting to think that this government has completely lost it, with respect to dealing with the veterans file.
Now Fantino is saying all the funds will be available within the 5/6 years.
Damage control after damage control.
Do yourself a favor, toss Fantino ASAP !

Put a Veteran into that portfolio !!!!!

Dereliction of duty? Just throw him out. I still have a wager somewhere he'd be gone by years end. But that's not the end to it. ABC, o.k. but how accountable is XYZ, the lesser of political party evils? Hold any of them to task, and encourage folks to simply vote to begin with methinks

The grass might not be greener on the other side, but it sure has been really... poopie on our side lately. pinger

Today, in the house of commons NDP leader Tom Mulcair has asked for the resignation of Fantino !

The NDP has accused Fantino of dereliction of duty !

Close but no cigar Pinger. What a bad time to get a penalty. At the link is an article about our elusive minister. Trip to Italy for 70th anniversary of liberation more like a free trip home on our dime.

Who is advising the goc on these matters? Hmm... try some gov't lackey's with a short leash.
Their expendable after some internal pissy fit debacle aren't they? Yank, yank. Think... cut throat self serving motives.
I wonder who in blazes is in that think tank.
Kinda reminds me of Gen. Nat being appointed the asst. VA minister. No hear'em speak'em...
Time will tell. I do not know too much about him but hope he doesn't go like Pat Strogan.
Perhaps if he does, it will show seriousness and guts. Who knows...


But I must digress. You see folks, It is a very holy day to me.
In my Canadian religion it is the utmost humblest of Holy Day's...

It's  GREY CUP FRACKING SUNDAY !!! Go cats. pinger.

The advisers are the bureaucrats that make big bonuses when they "save money" for the GOC.

Well we are being screwed over again.

I am happy to see Veterans groups, the media, and the opposition parties bringing another one of those so called announcements from the government to light, with respect to how the government is again trying very hard to make it sound like they are actually doing something proactive, and immediate to address Veterans issues.
From what I have seen as of late in the media surrounding how the government is treating Veterans in this Country, it's no wonder Fantino was not around to publicly address these issues.
Now he is back in town, and the PM is off abroad again.
They better come out with something better before the next election for things to quiet down a bit.
When Fantino was in Italy he was asked to respond to the AG report, this is what Fantino said; I happy to hear that the AG's report states that Veterans are receiving benefits in a timely fashion.
This guy has got to go, and it's sure is looking more and more like this present government has got to go.
It is becoming clear that this government has no intentions to listen and act on what Veterans are saying.
However, they are very good at making it look like their listening, even that now is not working out for them.

The ABC theory, is looking better by the day.

propat,

I to have just learned of this.

13.9 million for the first five to six years, and this is only for facilities.

The remaining of the 200 million will be spent over the next 50 years.

I am totally lost for words on this right now !
