Mr. Fergus, I also want to add that the OECD lays out a number of principles Mr. Page may have brought up about how independent fiscal institutions should operate. They put a premium on the value of leadership.
You asked about the risks. I think parliamentarians lower the risk when they pick a qualified person with the expertise and a reputation that is at stake. If the right choice is made in the leadership of the parliamentary budget office, parliamentarians then assume less risk of someone doing work that isn't responsive and relevant to the work of parliamentarians and Canadians.
