Found this interesting: fullcomment.nationalpost/2013/11/28/john-ivison-the-3-1-billion-conservative-boondoggle-that-never-was/ `In the wake of 9/11, the Liberal government of the day drew up a budget with $7.7-billion in new public safety and anti-terror provisions. Over the course of the next seven years, a total of $12.89-billion was allocated for anti-terror measures, across 35 departments and agencies. Mr. Ferguson said he couldn’t account for $3.1-billion of that funding. Most often the discrepancy was because spending was not tagged as being for anti-terror programs. For example, $246-million was transferred from Citizenship and Immigration to the new Canadian Border Services Agency but the money was not identified as being part of the Public Security and Anti-Terrorism Initiative envelope.`
