As Mr. Sparrow and Minister Finley have explained, the program provided an estimate. The minister's office, as the final spokesperson, decided not to provide the information until the campaign was over. I spoke to Mr. Sparrow about it, and he said there's only a couple of days left in the campaign, let's wait. I said that seemed reasonable to me and that's what we did.
