Additional notes (http://swarmfree.livejournal.com/709.html#cutid5). These (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dE1xmC-XZ8#t=3m37s) two (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDbFpPWh1gM) videos aren't part of his canon point, but are still useful insight to Veetor's personality in certain situations.
Canon Point: Post-Treason, "rally the crowd" resolution.

Setting: 2185 CE. FANTASTICAL SPACE OPERA OF EPIC PROPORTIONS. Humans eventually get themselves super advanced technology and venture out past their itty bitty solar system. They've been part of galactic society for a good while now.

So yeah, epic galaxy. Lots of diversity. You've got your bird-reptile-ish turians, amphibious salarians, squishy blue-skinned asari — cool alien species like that. The coolest of the bunch are the quarians, and Veetor's one of them. For quarians, the community comes before the individual. Ancestors are highly respected and worshiped. Belongings are usually judged for their usefulness rather than personal or sentimental value, and "reduce, reuse, recycle" is a very important thing to keep in mind at all times. When it comes to their current way of life, quarians are kind of like... space Bedouins. They don't have a homeworld (anymore) — instead they float through the galaxy in a huge fleet of starships that travel together, nomadic, never staying in one place for very long. For the past few centuries quarians have never been seen without their enviro-suits, stuck behind helmets due to the shittiest immune system ever. Don't ever sneeze on a quarian. It will kill them.

To keep things short, here's how shit went down. 300ish years ago, the quarians created the geth, a race of highly advanced robot slaves. Eventually, sentience achievement unlocked! Shit! TIME TO BACKPEDAL AND DISMANTLE THOSE FUCKERS. MORNING WAR (http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Morning_War). The quarians lose and are forced to evacuate their homeworld and have been drifting amidst the stars ever since. One day, one day, they will take their world back. One day soon. Goddamn synthetics.

In the grand scheme of things in the Mass Effect universe, Veetor's pretty much a nobody. Just one of many young quarians scattered amongst the stars that still need to complete their rite of passage. Whichever ship captain Veetor needs to impress after he gives the whole Pilgrimage (http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Pilgrimage) thing a second go, I don't think he's made a very good impression so far...

Hopefully things will get better. Or the Reapers could just save Veetor the grief and shame by wiping out everything in existence. Problem solved?
