Well, I guess the question...and you've sort of raised this from another angle. As a designated public office holder, as an MP, if I'm being told that I have to register every single person who comes to and meets in my office, in some ways I don't have a problem with that, but in other areas I do. There are people who come to me because they have to give me information, because they're concerned about what's happening. There's secrecy...not secrecy, but privacy rights. So it seems to me that the little Joe and Jenny community group that wants to meet with me because they're concerned about policy gets treated the same as the Capital Hill Group if they don't register as lobbyists.
However, if I were an MP and had a list of all the groups I met with in a given day, I don't have a problem with that, because, jeez, people would think I actually worked hard for a living when they see all the people we do meet. But there are problems with that. So putting the onus on the group who's coming in, it seems to me, is letting you guys off the hook, because we're going to get swamped with all kinds of little community groups that aren't going to be meeting the Lobbying Act, and then we're going to be going after all these people for failing to register as lobbyists but missing the people who, with that little phone call, may have enormous influence.
