Okay.

I also have a question about Elections Canada. Most of the cuts were phased in gradually. Elections Canada was virtually alone, I think, in having all of its $7 million cut, front-end loaded, in year one. This seems a pretty austere situation. Are you able to provide any information on why those cuts were front-end loaded in that way?

As spoken
