Canadas veterans will be in Ottawa Thursday, October 3rd to talk about why the
federal government must not close 9 Veterans Affairs offices.
The office in Prince George has
already been shut down and the government says that by February, offices in
Corner Brook, Charlottetown, Sydney, Thunder Bay, Windsor, Brandon, Saskatoon
and Kelowna will be closing their doors to veterans too.
Tune into a live
webcast to hear what they have to say!
WATCH THE LAUNCH
LIVE ( http://www.psac.com/webcast ) at 11:00 am EST on
Thursday, October 3. www.psac.com/webcast
These are the offices that both
traditional and younger veterans - including those with serious physical and
mental health issues, depend on for face-to-face frontline services.
Veterans in Thunder Bay will now have to travel over 10 hours to get to
the next closest office!
Veterans in the Windsor area, will be forced to
travel over 2 hours away to London.
This is not
acceptable!
Tune in to hear how veterans will be
impacted by these closure and find out how you can help.
