     Current policy in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) is to provide individuals who require a prosthesis for a knee disarticulation (KD) or transfemoral (TF)-level amputation a microprocessor knee (MPK) unit for daily use and a non-microprocessor knee unit (N-MPK) as a backup prosthesis.
