Geoff:
I spent about 10 minutes Googling your subject and came up with gobbldy gook. Obviously using the wrong search terms.

May I ask, though, are we talking about Pension benefits or medical benefits here? I would assume the person involved would be paid his Canadian Pension by the Canadian Government.

I know that not a few retired American servicement and women have relocated to Victoria B.C. amongst other Canadian locations and would be wanting to avail themselves of Canadian medical services even while retaining US citizenship. Your national medical system is vastly different from ours and I believe anyone resident in Canada regardless of citizenship can avail themselves of your system. That may be why the need to have a separate Act agreed upon between the two countries regarding veterans so that Canadians down here had the same rights to VA supplied medical care.

Just a thought and I bet it will take a phone call or email or two to dig up this Act.
Cheers
Bill
