Mr. Bill Matthews at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

Comptroller General of Canada, Office of the Comptroller General of Canada

I would like to talk about the budget of Transport Canada.

If you look at the detailed breakdown, operating expenditures in the main estimates are actually higher in 2015-16 than in the 2014-15 main estimates. Capital expenditures are showing a decrease, and that is largely because of a transfer of resources related to the Detroit River international crossing to the new authority for the bridge, so operating is up, capital is down, and that's why you're seeing the decrease.
