Talk:Veterans Affairs Canada

Headquarters Location

Are they really located on PEI? Can somebody explain this? Mikedelsol 09:59, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Veterans Affairs Canada head office was relocated from Ottawa to Charlottetown between 1976, when the annoucement was first made, to 1984, when the move was considered "complete".

As to why, keep an eye on this page, I'll be adding to it soon. Wikig39 17:45, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Deleted Numerous Political Attack Links

I have deleted a number of links to a disreputed organization that claims to be "advocating" for veterans. These links had nothing to do with Veterans Affairs Canada and were aimed at politically damaging and/or insulting the Veterans Affairs Minister and the Conservative government. Advertising for this one-man advocacy group should not be done under the guise of an encyclopaedia about Veterans Affairs Canada. Gentek16 (talk) 02:17, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

Deleted Additions from Canadian Veterans Advocacy

It is obvious that a member or supporter of the Canadian Veterans Advocacy is using this page as their personal kingdom to slander the department, the minister, and the government. This is not acceptable. I have removed or corrected their additions. Gentek16 (talk) 02:53, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

Tagged incomplete

This article comes off as an anti-government attack article; all it did was criticize the government/the department for what it didn't do, and it used questionable sources (or none at all). I've done a cleanup of the biased stuff. What we need now is an expansion of this article into all the good it does (especially the implementation of the New Veterans Charter).
