Pat Stogran
Pat Stogran is a retired Colonel of the Canadian Forces Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI) and was Canada's first Veteran's Ombudsman. In 2010, Stogran criticized the Conservative government's choice to enforce the New Veterans Charter, which was signed into law by the previous Liberal government in 2005 after approval by all parties. Among other changes, it took away veterans' disability pensions in favour of a one-time lump sum payment. These were deemed inadequate when compared to compensation received by civilians who were similarly injured in industrial accidents. ==Early life==
He grew up in Northern Quebec with a great love of the outdoors 〔http://www.therebelgorilla.com/about-us/〕 and extreme, over-the-top competition. The second oldest of four brothers — his father was a mining executive who eventually moved the family to British Columbia — Stogran thought regular snowball fights were boring, so he organized games of skins versus shirts. Fishing trips became endurance tests and overnight camping were a survival game. He acquired a martial arts third-degree black belt. In 1976, after high school, he went to Royal Roads Military College in Victoria, BC, as a way to trade four years of military service in order to get an electrical engineering degree. He also holds a Master of Strategic Studies from the United States Army War College.
