Lakeshore Advance, 2012-07-25, Page 6Wednesday, July 27, 2011 • Lakeshore Advance 25 CF Policy Dlscrlmlnates Against gamine Non -Afghan Veterans says Legion � e Bob Butt, Director Communications The Royal Canadian Legion For the Lakeshore Advance e Canadian Forces (CF) have r d a message that appears to at d the Legacy of Care Program formally announced co -jointly by Ministers Blackburn and MacKay in September 2010. The original program introduced five initiatives (Barrier -Free Transi- tional Accommodations, Support Services while in Transitional Accommodations, the CF Attend- ant Care Benefit, the CF Spousal Education Upgrade Program, and Enhanced Case Management Sup- port for Seriously 111 and Injured CF members). When the program was intro- duced, the news release indicated that all injured sailors, soldiers, air- men and airwomen, and their fam- ilies would be eligible. Unfortu- nately, this apparent wide eligibility has now been restricted in some instances to Afghanistan Only CF members and their families. Specifically, the Attendant (;are Benefit, the Caregiver Benefit and the Spousal Education Upgrade Baht'f Faith "Know vc' that God has created in lean the ))ower of mason, whereby man is enabled to investigate reality.

"We are appalled that such bla- tant (liscrimination is taking place, says Patricia Varga, the Legion's Dominion President. "It categorizes seriously ill and Injured CF mem- bers by theatre of operations," she says. "That is blatantly unfair. There are other CF members proudly serving their country in other far away locations," she adds. "If they are unfortunate enough to be seriously 111 and injured are we to assume that the sacrifice that Highway 21 at Ausahle Cut Church 519-243-2144 rh,ules,gtiveri•hca gtnail.

The Royal Canadian Legion is strongly recommending that the Government, particularly the CE, VAC and Treasury Board reverse this retrograde step in the ongoing care of seriously ill and injured CF members. "The Legion will continue to serve all CF members, irrespective of their theatre of operations. To do anything else is pure discrimination and grossly unfair and inequitable," she concludes.
