Family members can now only get federal support if their own treatment aids the recovery of a relative who served in uniform, and if the treatment is set up by the veteran’s doctor. They are also only allowed 25 sessions per year, and can’t see more than one professional at a time. “To be really crystal clear, we’re talking about when their mental-health issues can be clearly linked to their being part of a military family,” Jardine said in an interview.
“How do you give this to them? They seek counselling to help them understand via age-appropriate methods and skills that are beyond my scope as a mother.” “It was to those family members to find out that partway through their treatment, that the treatment isn’t going to be able to be continued,” Jardine told The Canadian Press.
Veterans totally cast aside! Liberal not patriotic... just fake! Thank you to veterans and all military for your sacrifice and service!!
