Hey Wawa are you from the town of Wawa in northern Ontatrio

Wawa did you call the SISIP number? You should be getting your two years of LTD back.

This is my first time on this site and had a bit of a hard time getting on, mostky because im not computer savy. I found alot of the things writen here to be good info. Im glad that the zero sum soldiers got there monthly check coming in now. and hope that the ones that arent are going to get it soon.

I myself am not a zero some cliant but i did get my VA clawed back for the two years until i was deemed good to go back to work. im not working at the moment but i em on the ELB and they did stop clawing back that money from me. I got medialy released in 2004, I do hope though that they will give me back the two years they clawed back but i dont know (I can only hope). any way

I was living in Nova Scotia when this all first started and mailed my medals in when i heard a few were doing that to suport yhis cause. I thought it was only right to do also so I could have a voice in some small way to suport this cause. (It was alot harder to do then I thought).

any way

im not on here lots to right because im not very good at ecpressing myself with typing. ( need help from my kids for the wording). I injoy the reading and what every one is sayin.

rustyrazor I commend you for your proactive effort to promote this site, and get more people involved.

I will comment when the full and complete final proposed settlement is provided to us in December.

It’s not too long to wait and I feel we will be supportive of the final settlement. I cannot say why I feel this way but I have my reasons.

I think Dennis was onto something about the settlement a while back, but spoke to soon, and then decided to delete his post.

Keep up the good work everyone and I am very proud to call my fellow veterans, my friends.

Cheers.

The best part of VVi is the information that is laid out here on the CSAT and on the main site.

That is VVi's mandate...information...the more informed veterans are the better their lives will be.

Wether it's your pension or a daily living aid that's what VVi is here for.

I am glad you like it ,Teen, that's what VVi did for me, back in 2008 , it had been 4 years since my medical release and I was lost in the wilderness, I was a legion member but that is only good for cheap beer and fish Fridays, ha ha. I came across VVi one day on the computer and have been on it ever since, the CSAT has heated up lately due to the sisip case, but the forum infected me and I haven't been able to shake it or find a cure since.

Well Peep that is a good idea but I can't delete, clean up a topic without deleting the whole topic. So I'll create a new topic and make it a sticky for people to say "hi and add what they want about themselves".

Teentitan,

Suggestion, I have been a member of a different forum in the past and it had a sticky which was for members to introduce themselves. I know we have a post already opened that lets us post called "here I am"? I think, but if it can be cleaned up and made sticky. All comments removed but the introductions, I think it will help. And a statement, no need to post, just introduce yourself with as little or much as you want.

You want positive thoughts, here is one.

Navrat best damn description for VVi yet! LMFAO! VVi Virus with no antidote! I'm going to use that at the next VAC meeting.

Rusty incase you don't know I'm not just the CSAT Forum Master I am also one of the co-publishers of VeteranVoice. The other co-publisher is also the Chief Editor and Bumpsy is the webmaster.

Sean Bruyea is a guest editor and every person that posts on the CSAT speaks to a lot of government departments and employees! Also to some media outlets.

Does VVi want to spread the virus, Navrat, absolutely! But like all viruses it takes time to spread. The SISIP clawback has helped spread it and when this is settled we get into the Equitas lawsuit. But don't forget some of the hairbrained ideas VAC keeps coming up with need to be kept in the forefront. So keep posting on the CSAT and you can also send letters to the editor of your hometown papers. Keep Jane and Joe Canadian aware of how ALL vets are getting the shaft.

The problem is, it has been ingrained in our society that a Veteran is the 70-80 years old being helped to his feet during Remembrance day, so many younger ex-military do not identify themselves as Veterans unless they were injured. This is also perpetuated by DVA, who only consider those who were injured as clients, even though their mandate should be be to assist everyone who has worn the uniform. but I digress. Since these younger guys and girls do not call themselves Veterans, they are not likely to involve themselves in Veterans issues unless it pertains to them, and it is this generation that we need widespread support from to really get VVi off the ground.

Once this VVi virus infects the greater veteran community there won't be a vaccine to stop it , it will spread like wild fire
