One of our witnesses had an interesting approach, and I'm not sure it was quite accurate. The Government of Alberta was in front of us—I guess they were clerks from the department—and they indicated there was no issue of confidentiality between the budget and their development of the estimates.
Tell me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that the budget is a secret document and very few people know all of the parts that go into it. It would expand the ring of knowledge if we were to have the estimates match or come closer to the budget, in that a lot more people would have to be in the loop to be able to produce those budget documents.
Is that an accurate statement? Do you have any idea how they can do it in Alberta and we can't do it here?
