Lee Berthiaume Veterans Affairs Minister Lawrence MacAulay responds during question period in the House of Commons on Tuesday March 10, 2020 in Ottawa. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Adrian Wyld January 22, 2021 - 1:00 AM OTTAWA - Internal reports prepared by Veterans Affairs Canada show Canadian veterans have been waiting longer and longer in recent years to access psychiatric services and other medical support at government-run clinics. The reports obtained by The Canadian Press through the access-to-information system are separate from the controversy surrounding the backlog of tens of thousands of applications from veterans for disability benefits. They also follow a previous warning from the federal auditor general about former soldiers facing long waits for badly needed mental-health services, with the reports blaming the growing delays on a soaring demand for help over the past five years.
