Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I have two questions to ask, so I'll have to make a decision. I guess I'll come back to this one. In total, $40 million in the estimates was not spent for youth; 31% was underspent for adult literacy; and 25% was underspent for people with disabilities. I think the minister mentioned that the reason for this was the Magna Carta. That doesn't seem right to me.
I'm going to put it to you that the real reason this money wasn't spent was that there was an order from the minister to the department to balance the budget whatever the cost, even if that meant not spending moneys that had been authorized by Parliament to be spent on these targets. Is that the reason the money wasn't spent?
