I’m not going to keep going on beyond this and bore everyone, but yes it’s extremely complicated to request extra money for anything in the fed system because of how many checks and balances there are, especially if it’s over $50k annually and has to go to the Minister in Ottawa for approval and NO there are multiple ways not to lose funding even if you don’t spend everything OR reallocate overages to other programs that overspent so they’re not underwater without it affecting your subsequent budget year.

If you want to keep believing otherwise, that’s your prerogative, but I’m telling you that’s not how it works in any responsible department. “March Madness” is a thing of the past to any agency unless it’s run by absolute dinosaurs willfully circumventing treasury board policies.
