Maybe I'll articulate the concern in a slightly different way, because I understand that you're going to have other fiscal forecasts from third-party agencies, and you're going to be able to contrast them against what the government provides. To some degree, that's something that we do now as parliamentarians.
Let's take a scenario—unfortunately, it's not as hard to imagine as one would think, as it's happened in many instances—where you have a government that has misrepresented the fiscal position, either of a province, or the nation in this case. You can take the example of Ontario, where the government said they had a surplus when they were in fact running a deficit. So you have instances where governments are not providing accurate information; it's information that is tainted by a partisan agenda. And I think the intent of establishing your office was to be able to expose that and also to be able to provide independent analysis. How would you get at that?
If you're getting your analytics from the finance department, how are you going to be able to challenge what they're putting forward and be able to see behind the curtain, if you will—not so much in terms of collecting the other information that's out there, but really to see behind that curtain to see whether or not we're getting the straight goods as to the status of the nation's finances and what our fiscal position is? How do you see that working under the umbrella of the Library of Parliament, which traditionally hasn't taken on that challenge role?
