So based on your information in the chapter, am I correct in stating that this information, because it was passed, would have been before the cabinet? For me, it's the particular departments involved, National Defence and Finance—they do budgets—and I would expect the Prime Minister would sign off on things like budget.
Is it fair to say that they would more than likely be the three individuals involved in at least that piece of authorization of $25 billion heading towards a budget? So that would be the Prime Minister, Minister of Finance Mr. Flaherty, and Minister of Defence Mr. MacKay.
