Liberal MP's flyer wrongly tells constituents Liberals restored veterans' pensions


'Personally, I think he's trying to pull the wool over people's eyes,' father of Afghan veteran says



A Liberal MP has sent flyers to his constituents touting the government's record on the veterans file, claiming it has already restored lifetime pensions for wounded veterans — when in fact it has done no such thing.

CBC News first reported last month that the Liberal government is actually taking veterans, who are pushing for the restoration of this benefit, back to court after a legal truce of sorts reached by the former Conservative government expired in May.

And can anyone be surprised? The Liberals care NOTHING about the military or its veterans nor have they ever. I was p'd at the Conservatives for dragging this along as they did. Unfortunately, no one has ever stated exactly what the veterans wanted (i.e. how much) for "life-long" pensions and what their other demands were. I wouldn't be surprised if the Conservatives offered a rather realistic package that was turned down, but that's just my "gut" talking.


JMHO

The Cons did not offer a realistic package and that was the problem......

The Liberals hsve never been very interested in the Armed Forces. Expect them to scorch what little remaining earth there is, there as they fantacize about "giving peace a chance".

Is it any wonder I have never voted Liberal in my life - except for that time Paddy needed votes for the nomination so he bought me (and Gawd knows how many others) a membership. Paddy always threw the best parties - made the nomination, and was beaten by the NDP candidate. Glad because I think it a crooked thing to do
