Veterans Committee: Veterans deserve to heal.

November 24, 2025

At the Veterans Affairs Committee, we heard from Ernie Wouters, founder of the Seven Edge Program for Trauma Recovery and Empowerment (SEPTRE).

SEPTRE focuses on resilience, empowerment, and the holistic integration of the body, mind, and soul in healing. Veterans can speak to its resounding success in resolving trauma without the need for drugs or psychedelics.

Sadly, SEPTRE is not yet an approved program for Veterans through Veterans Affairs Canada. Veterans deserve choice in how they heal. The Liberal government must consider the effectiveness of SEPTRE and how it has changed lives for the better.
