Mr. Chairman, thank you for that opportunity. I was going to say that I don't think the government was trying to put any other words in anybody's mouth.
We worked off the left-hand column. The right-hand column was how we responded to the Parliamentary Budget Officer, in the exact same categories. We were trying to demonstrate that the Parliamentary Budget Officer, as far as we could tell, also did not use operating costs. The Auditor General picked it up from decision-making documents and laid it beside what we responded to the Parliamentary Budget Officer. The Auditor General could just as easily have put in the Parliamentary Budget Officer's column, and there would have been much more clarity on that issue.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
