Do you draw any differences in lobbying between government members or cabinet ministers versus members of the opposition? We know that lobbyists will try to meet with all 308 members of Parliament as well as senators. In respect of what the lobbyist is required to do and how the Conflict of Interest rules are established, is there any distinction between whether or not you are meeting with a cabinet minister, a parliamentary secretary, a government member of Parliament, or an opposition member of Parliament? Are the rules different, or are they the same for everyone?
