Requesting the average wait times for the following programs, with the Red Zone Requests, and then another calculation, removing these red zone requests. I believe that the Red Zone requests are skewing the data that Veterans Affairs are listing on their website, giving people the false pretense that their claims will be done much sooner than they actually are. Disability Benefits (First Application): - Other (Single Condition) - Other (Multiple Benefits) I'd like the average wait times calculated out in the weekly format that they published the information on the following webpage, since 2019 if possible. https://www.veterans.gc.ca/eng/resources/wait-times.
