Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to all of our witnesses today. This has really been a fascinating discussion and back-and-forth.

I'm going to start with you, Mr. Thurlow, and a tweet of yours:

Rather than deal with hypothetical problems, why don't we focus on the constitutional issues that are squarely in front of Parliament as a result of the proposed changes to the lobbying code?

I don't like to deal in hypotheticals either, so let's get to the heart of the matter, because we have skirted around the charter. I would like to dig in a little, if we can.
