Editd excerpt: "Bill C-12 amends the Canadian Forces Members and Veterans Re-establishment and Compensation Act to, among other things...
increase the percentage in the formula used to calculate the earnings loss benefit;
specify when a disability award becomes payable and clarify the formula used to calculate the amount of a disability award; 
increase the amounts of a disability award; and
increase the amount of a death benefit."

In addition, it contains transitional provisions that provide, among other things, that the Minister of Veterans Affairs must pay, to a person who received a disability award or a death benefit under that Act before April 1, 2017, an amount that represents the increase in the amount of the disability award or the death benefit, as the case may be."
