The legislation is very strict. We do the platform costing. We give the numbers to a representative of a political party, and we have to keep that confidential until the political party writes back to the PBO saying that they have made it public. If they don't write—if they just say, “We made it public”—and I know they made it public, that's one thing, but I cannot release the document. That is the insurance of political parties revealing the right approach.
If they don't, or if they use the numbers and manipulate them—which I'm pretty sure political parties will not do—we will go public afterwards. Not only that, but Jason and I also had meetings with the Chief Electoral Officer, and we will have a meeting with the commissioner of Canada Elections to discuss whether we will be perceived as a third party.
My concern was that I don't have any parliamentary privilege, so during the campaign, I don't want to be under the gun of any other third parties who will attack us. In that context, as I said, the quality and the validity of our reports will be the insurance that will protect us against false news, fake news, and so on.
