I have broad investigative powers. Unfortunately, not all violations of the act should be treated the same way. Everything is sent to the RCMP. It isn't complicated.
I would like to have the power to require mandatory training for people, to apply penalties or to impose a lobbying ban. My colleagues in the provinces can do this. I'm required to send everything to the RCMP.
I don't—and can't—do anything about delays. People who run late are accepted for the sake of transparency. However, at some point, if a penalty were imposed, they might not run late the next time.
