That's a good question.
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, or OECD, appeared before this committee recently to discuss its observations on the regime in Canada.
The OECD was very complimentary about the lobbying regime we have in place when they were comparing it to other regimes in other jurisdictions.
Overall, as I said, we have a fairly robust regime. It is very comprehensive in terms of its scope and the reporting that is done. I believe the commissioner reported that roughly 30,000 communication reports were filed last year, which provide a lot of transparency.
There's a lot being accomplished that is very helpful for transparency, but there are always opportunities for improvement, and this review is very timely to help look at what those opportunities may be.
