Mr. Speaker, Canadian veterans have fought for our country and deserve all the respect in the world. Our government has invested over $11 billion in new services and supports for veterans since 2016 and will always support those who have served to promote and defend Canadian values, both at home and in so-called faraway foreign lands.
Can the Prime Minister update this House on what measures this government has taken to support our veterans?
Monsieur le Président, les anciens combattants canadiens se sont battus pour notre pays et ils méritent tout le respect du monde. Depuis 2016, le gouvernement a investi plus de 11 milliards de dollars afin d'élargir l'éventail de services et de mesures d'aide aux anciens combattants. Il soutiendra toujours ceux qui ont servi notre pays pour prôner et défendre ses valeurs, à la fois chez nous et dans ce qu'on appelle les contrées lointaines.
Le premier ministre peut-il faire le point sur les mesures prises par le gouvernement pour soutenir les vétérans?

Madam Speaker, our government has invested nearly half a million dollars to allow us to hire hundreds of new staff and speed up the process to ensure that veterans receive what they deserve more quickly.
As of last week, the backlog is currently under 6,000, and we have seen a significant decrease of over 70%. However, there is still more work to do, and we will continue to do it.
Madame la Présidente, le gouvernement a investi près d'un demi-million de dollars pour embaucher des centaines de nouveaux employés et accélérer le processus afin que les anciens combattants reçoivent plus rapidement ce qu'ils méritent.
En date de la semaine dernière, l'arriéré était inférieur à 6 000 demandes. Il s'agit d'une baisse de plus de 70 %, ce qui est énorme. Cependant, il reste encore du travail à faire, et nous poursuivrons nos efforts en ce sens.

Mr. Speaker, I have met with the union leadership and I have met union people. I have met with Veterans Affairs employees. We have increased our funding to Veterans Affairs by over $11 billion. My mandate and this government's mandate is to make sure we take care of our veterans. We have taken care of and we will continue to take care of our veterans.
Monsieur le Président, j'ai rencontré les dirigeants du syndicat et des syndiqués. J'ai rencontré des employés d'Anciens Combattants. Nous avons augmenté le financement d'Anciens Combattants de plus de 11 milliards de dollars. Mon mandat et celui du gouvernement sont de nous assurer de prendre soin des vétérans canadiens. Nous avons pris soin d'eux et nous continuerons de le faire.

Madam Speaker, I am surprised to get that question from my hon. colleague.
The fact is that we have a new contract that will go into effect at the end of November. There will be 9,000 health professionals in 600 locations across the country. What we are doing as a government is providing the services for veterans where veterans need the services. It would be totally irresponsible to cancel that contract.
Madame la Présidente, je suis surpris que le député me pose une telle question.
En fait, nous avons conclu un nouveau contrat, qui entrera en vigueur à la fin de novembre. Il y aura 9 000 professionnels de la santé répartis dans 600 emplacements au pays. Le gouvernement fournit des services aux anciens combattants là où les anciens combattants en ont besoin. Il serait totalement irresponsable d'annuler ce contrat.

Madam Speaker, again, I am surprised to receive the question from my hon. colleague.
In fact, what we are doing is taking two contracts and putting them into one. We are making sure that we have 9,000 health professionals across the country in 600 different areas to ensure veterans can receive rehab and health services in towns, cities and rural areas across the country. We are not opposed to that. We want to provide the services for our veterans and we will.
Madame la Présidente, encore une fois, je suis étonné que mon collègue me pose cette question.
En vérité, nous prenons deux contrats et nous les fusionnons. Nous nous assurons d'avoir 9 000 professionnels de la santé au pays dans 600 régions différentes afin que les vétérans puissent obtenir des services de réadaptation et des soins de santé dans les villes, les villages et les régions rurales de tout le pays. Nous ne voulons pas sabrer ces services. Nous voulons les fournir aux vétérans canadiens et nous le ferons.

Mr. Speaker, my hon. colleague is fully aware that we invested over $200 million into Veterans Affairs to make sure it was able to hire employees: employees who, in fact, were fired by the previous government. The 2021 budget included an extension of these resources so we could continue to address the backlog. We have seen a significant decrease in the backlog, in fact, by 40%. I can assure my hon. colleague that we will continue to decrease the backlog.
Monsieur le Président, le député sait très bien que nous avons versé plus de 200 millions de dollars à Anciens Combattants Canada pour embaucher du personnel pour remplacer des employés licenciés par le gouvernement précédent. Le budget de 2021 prévoyait une prolongation du contrat de ces ressources afin de continuer à traiter les dossiers restants. Nous avons constaté une réduction importante du nombre de dossiers accumulés, plus précisément de 40 %. Je tiens à rassurer le député: nous allons continuer nos efforts pour réduire le nombre de dossiers non encore traités.

Mr. Speaker, it is kind of rich to be getting this kind of question from a party that, when they were in power, fired 1,000 employees, cut funding to Veterans Affairs and slashed budgets. In fact, they hurt veterans and they hurt Veterans Affairs.
I can assure my hon. colleague that we will continue to make sure that we have the investments to continue to decrease the backlog. Our government has made sure our veterans receive the appropriate compensation they should get, and it will continue to.
Monsieur le Président, le député a du culot de poser cette question. En effet, quand son parti était au pouvoir, le gouvernement a orchestré le congédiement de 1 000 employés, en plus de réduire le financement et le budget d'Anciens Combattants Canada. Il ne fait aucun doute que son parti a causé beaucoup de tort aux vétérans et a grandement nuit au ministère.
Je tiens à rassurer le député: nous allons continuer nos efforts pour veiller au financement approprié d'Anciens Combattants Canada afin de réduire l'accumulation de dossiers. Le gouvernement n'a pas ménagé ses efforts et il continuera de faire tout ce qu'il faut pour que les vétérans reçoivent les indemnisations qui leur reviennent.

Mr. Speaker, I can assure my hon. colleague that our government places the highest priority on ensuring that veterans and their families receive the support and services they should. That is why we have hired over 450 case managers since we formed the government, and we intend, and will do more, to ensure the veterans in our country receive the remuneration they deserve.
Monsieur le Président, je peux assurer à mon collègue que le gouvernement a comme priorité de veiller à ce que les vétérans et leur famille reçoivent toute l'aide et les services dont ils ont besoin. C'est pour cette raison que nous avons embauché plus de 450 gestionnaires de cas depuis que nous sommes au pouvoir et que nous en ferons encore plus pour que les vétérans canadiens reçoivent les sommes auxquelles ils ont droit.
