A chart depicts the spending trends for the Canada School from 2006-2007 to 2008-2009. Along the vertical axis the expenditure amounts are indicated in ten thousand dollar increments ranging from $80,000 to $160,000. The horizontal axis is divided into four expenditure categories. The categories are Main Estimates, Planned Spending, Total Authorities, and Actual Spending. Three lines on the chart show the spending trends for the years 2006-2007, 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 respectively.

In 2006-2007 the Main Estimates were $111,185; Planned Spending was $109,124; Total Authorities were $136,100; and the Actual Spending was $113,037.

In 2008-2009 the Main Estimates were $96,601; Planned Spending was $96,601; Total Authorities were $157,909; and the Actual Spending was $139,728.
