Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. I'd like to welcome Mr. Jordan here.
As you've already mentioned in your opening remarks, this is a huge and complex machine. I am a fairly new member to this committee since this Parliament began. Understanding all of the elements and the number of reports that may be available, as was mentioned by my colleague, is a challenge. There is a lot of information. Knowing where to go to get it and how to make it fit is often an issue.
I want to ask you a bit about the budget. You mentioned three significant reports—the DPRs, the RPPs, and then the estimates. We haven't really talked about the budget itself. Perhaps that itself is a strategic document in that it and previous budgets provide an understanding of the priorities of the government. Where do you see the budget fitting in, in relation to the three documents you referenced?
