No, the 220,000 jobs figure was estimated by the department. We've published an annex in budget 2009 that goes over the details of the calculations.
In putting together the estimate, we asked two independent forecasting organizations to verify our assumptions—the Conference Board and the University of Toronto—on these multipliers we used. Generally speaking, they came in with multipliers that were higher than ours. We compared our estimates to the work that both the CBO and the U.S. Council of Economic Advisers put out, and again, in all respects, our estimates, we thought, were prudent, particularly in regard to the inducement to employment, for which our estimate was quite a bit lower than theirs.
