Veterans’ Affairs Minister Message on Afghanistan – Letter to Stakeholders / Lettre aux intervenants

An item from our colleagues at the RCAF Association.


To: VAC Stakeholder Community,

These past few weeks have been incredibly difficult for our Veteran community. With the Taliban’s rapid advance across Afghanistan, it appears that the entire country could soon be under their control.

Given all it represents to so many of our Afghan Veterans, the fall of Kandahar will surely be particularly challenging. Having never worn the uniform, I know I will never be able to understand what so many of those who served there are grappling with.

As Minister, though, I want to provide some resources that I hope might be of use for those of you – and to those you serve – who might understandably be struggling with the situation in Afghanistan.

  • At Veterans Affairs, please know that the VAC Assistance Service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Veterans, former RCMP members, families, and caregivers can call to speak with a mental health professional, free of charge, at 1-800-268-7708 (TDD/TTY: 1-800-567-5803.)
  • For those still serving in the Canadian Armed Forces, support is available to members and their families at each Canadian Forces Health Services centre across the country.
  • The Member Assistance Program also offers 24/7 confidential short-term counselling to members and their families, and can be reached at 1-800-268-7708 (TDD 1-800-567-5803.)
  • Some additional information on mental health resources can also be found through the Canadian Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs Canada.

Because of what Canadians achieved in Afghanistan, lives have been changed, unquestionably, for the better. There are children who received medicine that allowed them to reach their teens when they otherwise wouldn’t have. There are now young women studying law, physics, and journalism at some of the world’s finest universities who would never have gotten that opportunity.

Time will tell us what those stories mean, but I choose to believe that the world will be better for them.

However this chapter in Afghanistan’s history ends, Canada will not forget the actions of the more than 40,000 of our remarkable men and women who served there – the stories of their sacrifice will outlast them.

Our kids and grandkids are going to learn about the Canadians who fought and gave their lives in the streets and poppy fields of Kandahar, just like they will about the ones who fought and gave their lives at Vimy Ridge and Juno Beach.

Their wars might be different, but their stories are fundamentally the same. They went off to serve their country, and they did all that was asked of them and more.

How our Afghanistan Veterans and their families will come to understand their sacrifices is surely not for me to say, but I can promise that Canada will remain forever grateful for their service.

Please take care, and thank you for the work you all continue to do in support of our Veterans and their families.

Respectfully,

Lawrence MacAulay
Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence

 

Destinataires: Communauté des intervenants d’ACC,

Les dernières semaines ont été extrêmement difficiles pour notre communauté de vétérans. Avec l’avancée rapide des talibans en Afghanistan, il semble que tout le pays pourrait bientôt être sous leur contrôle.

Compte tenu de tout ce qu’elle représente pour tant de nos vétérans de l’Afghanistan, la chute de Kandahar sera sûrement particulièrement difficile. N’ayant jamais porté l’uniforme, je sais que je ne pourrai jamais comprendre ce à quoi sont confrontées les personnes qui ont servi.

En tant que ministre, cependant, je veux fournir des ressources qui, je l’espère, pourraient être utiles à ceux d’entre vous – et à ceux que vous avez servi – qui pourraient naturellement être bouleversés par la situation en Afghanistan.

  • À Anciens Combattants, sachez que le Service d’aide d’ACC est disponible 24 heures par jour, 7 jours sur 7. Les vétérans, les anciens membres de la GRC, les membres de leur famille et leurs aidants peuvent appeler pour parler à un professionnel de la santé mentale, sans frais, au 1-800-268-7708 (ATS : 1-800-567-5803).
  • Pour les personnes qui servent toujours au sein des Forces armées canadiennes, du soutien est mis à leur disposition ainsi qu’à celle de leur famille dans chacun des centres de Services de santé des Forces canadiennes au pays.
  • Le Programme d’aide aux membres offre également des services confidentiels de relation d’aide à court terme 24 heures sur 24, 7 jours sur 7 aux membres et à leur famille; il est disponible au 1-800-268-7708 (ATS 1-800-567-5803).
  • Des informations supplémentaires sur les ressources en santé mentale peuvent également être trouvées auprès des Forces armées canadiennes et d’Anciens Combattants Canada.

Grâce à ce que les Canadiens ont accompli en Afghanistan, des vies ont été changées, sans aucun doute pour le mieux. Il y a des enfants qui ont reçu des médicaments qui leur ont permis d’atteindre l’adolescence alors qu’ils n’auraient pas pu autrement. Il y a maintenant des jeunes femmes qui étudient le droit, la physique et le journalisme dans certaines des meilleures universités du monde qui n’auraient jamais eu cette possibilité.

Le temps nous dira ce que ces histoires signifient, mais je choisis de croire que le monde sera meilleur pour eux.

Quelle que soit la fin de ce chapitre de l’histoire de l’Afghanistan, le Canada n’oubliera pas les actions de plus de 40 000 de nos hommes et femmes remarquables qui ont servi là-bas – les histoires de leur sacrifice leur survivront.

Nos enfants et petits-enfants vont en apprendre davantage sur les Canadiens qui se sont battus et ont donné leur vie dans les rues et les champs de pavot de Kandahar, tout comme ils le feront à propos de ceux qui se sont battus et ont donné leur vie à la crête de Vimy et à Juno Beach.

Leurs guerres sont peut-être différentes, mais leurs histoires sont fondamentalement les mêmes. Ils sont allés servir leur pays, et ils ont fait tout ce qu’on leur a demandé et plus encore.

Ce n’est sûrement pas à moi de dire quelle signification les vétérans de l’Afghanistan et leur famille tireront de leurs sacrifices, mais je peux promettre que le Canada restera à jamais reconnaissant pour leur service.

Prenez soin de vous et merci pour le travail que vous continuez tous à faire pour soutenir nos vétérans et leur famille.

Respectueusement,

Lawrence MacAulay
Ministre des Anciens Combattants et ministre associé de la Défense nationale

Canadian Studies Welcomes Nicholas Fraser as New Sproul Research Fellow
Canadian Studies is pleased to announce that Dr. Nicholas A. R. Fraser will be joining our team as a John A. Sproul Research Fellow for Academic Year 2021-22, beginning September 1.
In his new role, Dr. Fraser will assist program director Irene Bloemraad in research measuring Canadians’ attitudes towards immigration. Friends of the program may remember him from a lecture he gave in March 2020, in which he explored variations in asylum recognition rates across several countries through the lens of bureaucratic culture.
Dr. Fraser received his Ph.D. in political science at the University of Toronto, with a specialty in comparative politics and public policy. He holds a B.A. in political science from the University of Calgary, as well as M.A.s in political science from the University of British Columbia and Waseda University in Japan. His research focuses on how states attempt to control and manage the long-term impacts of immigration; it also engages questions about how interest groups, agencies, and courts influence policy and public attitudes in these fields. He has received numerous previous research grants, including the SSHRC Doctoral Fellowship.
We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Fraser to Berkeley, and look forward to a productive partnership over the coming year.
Fall 2021 Events Calendar
Canadian Studies is pleased to announce our events schedule for the Fall 2021 semester. To address ongoing health concerns, ​all Fall events will be held virtually or in a hybrid in-person/virtual format using Zoom conferencing. Please note that campus policy requires all participants to have a Zoom account to join meetings. All times posted are Pacific.

Elections Matter: The Politics of Coronavirus in Canada and the United States
September 14 | 12:30 pm | Online | RSVP here
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have wide-ranging consequences on North American politics. The effect of the virus on Joe Biden’s 2020 win remains debated; meanwhile, Justin Trudeau hopes to use the belated success of his vaccine procurement strategy to win his party a parliamentary majority in the September 20 federal elections. How has COVID-19 shaped electoral politics in Canada and the United States as it relates to crucial recent and ongoing policy choices? Political scientist Daniel Béland, director of the McGill Institute for the Study of Canada, will address this question while discussing the potential political and policy consequences of the upcoming Canadian elections.
Canadian Family Thanksgiving
October 9 | Information pending
Subject to public health conditions, Canadian Studies and the Digital Moose Lounge hope to welcome friends back for a special Thanksgiving celebration with the Bay Area’s Canadian community. Stay turned for updates!
Book Talk: Making Middle-Class Multiculturalism: Immigration Bureaucrats and Policymaking in Postwar Canada
October 12 | 12:30 pm | Online | RSVP here
In the 1950s and 1960s, immigration bureaucrats played an important yet unacknowledged role in transforming Canada’s immigration policy. Their perceptions and judgements about the admissibility of individuals — in socioeconomic, racial, and moral terms — influenced the creation of formal admissions criteria for skilled workers and family immigrants that continue to shape immigration to Canada. Migration expert Jennifer Elrick (McGill University) will discuss insights gained from her forthcoming book on the topic.
Studying Religious Symbols and Bias in Court Proceedings
November 9 | 12:30 pm | Hybrid | RSVP here
Canadian Studies’ new Sproul Fellow Nicholas A. R. Fraser will discuss some of his own research that examines bias within Canadian judicial procedures against religious minorities. Using his own experimental data, Dr. Fraser will use the example of courtroom oaths as a window into how Canadian cultural expectations can subtly affect an immigrant’s experience of “integration.”
Hildebrand Graduate Research Colloquium
December 7 | 12:30 pm | Hybrid | RSVP here
Learn about the research Canadian Studies funds through our Edward Hildebrand Graduate Research Fellowships, as recipients present short overviews of their projects. Participating scholars to be announced soon.
IN THE NEWS
Trudeau Calls Snap Elections for September; Announces Resettlement Plans for Afghan Refugees
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Sunday that he had requested the Governor General to dissolve Parliament, triggering a snap election scheduled for September 20. The move is calculated to bolster Trudeau’s Liberal Party, with polls suggesting that the party may capture enough seats to win a majority government. For the past two years, Trudeau has relied on the support of the opposition to pass his agenda. Some opponents have questioned the wisdom of holding a vote while Canada faces a new wave of COVID; however, federal officials insist the election will be held safely.
Separately, Trudeau reacted Monday to Taliban’s lightning takeover of Afghanistan by announcing that his government would resettle thousands of Afghan refugees in Canada over the coming weeks. Trudeau admitted that his government was surprised by the speed of the Afghan government collapse; nevertheless, in spite of a chaotic situation on the ground, he insisted that Canada will help evacuated over 20,000 Afghans in coordination with the United States and other allies.
Canadian Studies Faculty Affiliate Alison Gopnik Wins Prize for Science Popularization
Berkeley News announced last week that Canadian Studies affiliate Alison Gopnik, a research psychologist specializing in child development, has won the 2021 Carl Sagan Prize for Science Popularization. The prize recognizes researchers who have made a significant contribution to the public’s understanding of science.
Professor Gopnik is the author of several popular books, including The Scientist in the Crib and The Philosophical Baby. Her research explores how young children come to know about the world around them, using the framework that children are constantly testing theories about the world in much the way that scientists do.
Professor Gopnik was born in Philadelphia and raised in Montreal. She obtained her bachelor’s degree from McGill University, and her Ph.D. at Oxford. She taught at the University of Toronto before joining the Berkeley faculty in 1988.
