This is a quote talking about the Liberal gov't preceding Harper (Martin) and then Harper's government from a right wing news source -  
 "Quite the opposite; for the first time (1995 budget), the government introduced a process to carefully review federal program spending — what it was doing, what it should be doing. That program review process was transparent and accountable — unlike the spending reviews undertaken by the Harper government since 2010, for which the government has refused to provide information to the Parliamentary Budget Officer."

And that is from some right wingers who used to work on Mulroney's budgets.
