Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Bélanger and Mr. Bertrand, thank you both for being here this morning.
The infamous 20% rule is something that's always concerned me. If someone who isn't a registered lobbyist meets with a public office-holder or an MP to discuss a certain issue, how can we know whether they are really adhering to the 20% rule? That person could tell us that they are responsible for only a small file and that they spend no more than one day a month working on it. All we can do is take their word for it. We are powerless.
Do you have any advice for us?
