Windsor will have a veterans affairs office once again.
Veterans Affairs Canada spokeswoman Kate Murphy says Windsor is one of nine locations set to reopen, as promised in the Minister of Veterans Affairs' mandate letter.
The letter to Veterans Affairs Minister Kent Hehr from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promises to "Re-open the nine Veterans Affairs service offices recently closed, hire more service delivery staff, and fully implement all of the Auditor General’s recommendations on enhancing mental health service delivery to veterans."
Murphy says details on when and where the Windsor office will be opening will be released at a later date.
The old Windsor office at 441 University Ave. W closed on January 31, 2014. Vets and politicians stages a rally at that time to voice displeasure with the Conservative government for closing the offices nationwide.
