The Annual General Meeting of NCVA took place in Toronto on November 21, 2017 – a highly successful meeting where the proposed Legislative Program was fully approved and formally adopted.
It is to be noted that the report delineates in considerable detail the ongoing areas of concern that NCVA has identified vis-à-vis veterans' legislation and VAC policy – there is little question that much more is required to improve the New Veterans Charter and related veterans' legislation.
