field\u00a0(2001- present) I have come to understand that veterans, upon discharge from the Canadian Forces, often have limited or no access to dental services with the benefits available to them from Veteran Affairs.\u00a0\u00a0I, in no way fault\u00a0Veterans Affairs,\u00a0as there are\u00a0many needs that they must\u00a0address\u00a0and oral health seems to slip through the preverbal cracks.\u00a0 I feel\u00a0this is unjust considering the service they have provided to us, their fellow Canadians.\u00a0 It is for these reasons that I initiated the Nominate a Veteran Campaign as I
