I don't disagree with you; I also don't know.
First of all, the idea of voluntary compliance to a list of ethical guidelines hasn't served us all that well. That was some of the frustration that led to Bill C-2. There was a hue and cry to toughen up the ethical standards being exercised in Ottawa, so I think that was the temptation to go with legislation. But I also don't know if you really need to tell people that they shouldn't steal things, or that they should... I mean, when you hire somebody or elect somebody, it's kind of implied that they shouldn't do bad things. I don't know if a preamble stating that would help the interpretation.
