Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for being here today.
Our government, since 2006, has tried to address.... I think we've made great strides in trying to provide citizens a more open and transparent government. This exercise today proves we're serious about this and trying to improve the Lobbying Act.
All of you are experts in this field. I'm just wondering if there are any models in other countries you have observed that you feel are good models, or are we leading the way in terms of lobbying?
Mr. Chenier.
