Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I thank the witnesses for joining us. There are a number of questions that have been generated here.
The first one about our struggle with the mains not matching what's in the budget because of timing. You're saying that yours do. Is there an issue with confidentiality, that the departments know what's going to be in the budget because they have to produce the mains prior to the budget being presented? That's part of the argument that is made here, that there are very few people who actually understand what's in the budget until the budget is presented to the House. That's why the mains can't reflect what's in the budget, or half the bureaucracy here in Ottawa wouldn't know what's in the budget. Is that an issue for you?
