Time to Breed a Budget Watchdog for B.C.
When Canadians wondered about the real cost of the military mission in Afghanistan, they got the answer from parliament's independent budget officer. About $14 billion to $18 billion, roughly double the range reported by the politicians, according to the report from PBO Kevin Page.
When Americans wanted to know the real cost of President Barack Obama's health-care plan, they got the answer from a similar office in their country. The congressional budget office pegged it at $1 trillion, a number that forced a rewrite of the proposal that is ongoing.
