People commit murder over far far less


… sure? But my point is that this is not a lot of work.

I find the claim that it had exploded 30x to be almost impossible. Because you will struggle to do a single McKinsey project for 1/30th of 8M.


You took the 66M and ammortized it annually, which backed you into the "You can't hire McKinsey for 1/30th of $8M" corner. The orignal source is trivial to find, and makes the calculation using total amounts during the respective terms.

> In the nine years of the Harper government, McKinsey was awarded $2.2 million in federal contracts. During Trudeau's seven years in office, the company has received $66 million from the federal government.

Ok sure. Shrug. It’s still not a very large figure. 8M per year is small.
