I couldn't find a government site that had the statistics. This is what I have found though.

Liberal Leader Raj Sherman said that his party has long said the government has "too many managers managing managers."
Wildrose Leader Danielle Smith said the plan to cut managers by 10 per cent does not go far enough. Smith noted the ratio of staff to managers in government is four to one, compared to a private-sector ratio of more than 10 to one. "You'd need to cut management by 50 per cent if you're actually serious about reforming the way the public service works," she said.

I know she (and other parties) have stated this in the Legislature too and have never been challenged on it.
I checked with a senior WRP adviser and the ratio came out a few years ago when the government confirmed there were about 6000 senior managers who either qualified for or received management bonuses.
