- Parties: The applicant was Steve Langlois. The respondent was Sa Majesté le Roi. 

- Subject Matter: This judicial review application sought to set aside a decision of the National Second Level Appeals Unit of Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC). The decision denied the applicant's application for an education and training allowance. The application asked the court to order the payment of the education and training allowance and completion bonus in the amount calculated by VAC under the Veterans Well-being Act, 2005 and the Veterans Well-being Regulations, SOR/2006-50. The applicant, a veteran with over 22 year of service at the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF), alleged that he failed to submit to the VAC his application for an allowance before undertaking and successfully completing his osteopathy studies. He alleged that he was still eligible under the Veterans Well-being Act since this failure was for reasons beyond his control. This case is ongoing. 

- Date: The hearing was set on Apr. 17, 2025. 

- Venue: This was a federal case before the Federal Court. 

- Amount: No financial award was specified.
