Welcome back to our committee, Ms. Bélanger.
We are also very pleased to have you here today and to know that we will get your recommendations, as well as the explanations for all your recommendations, including the ones you submitted recently.
The last time you appeared here, you told us about the lobbying regime in British Columbia. You alluded to it in saying that it's an almost perfect model. The legislation, in British Columbia, has a registration threshold requirement, which is zero. Right now, you're talking about an eight-hour threshold. That means that, in British Columbia, lobbying must be registered as soon as it occurs. In addition, there is an exemption for small organizations with fewer than six employees.
What aspects of the British Columbia model do you think work especially well?
Are there any specific aspects that could realistically be adapted to our federal system?
