I'm not sure I fully understand the second scenario.
I certainly have a very good relationship with the Ethics Commissioner. I would even add that, when I was appointed, Mr. Dion and I signed an agreement to do training together. That said, my office isn't a reflection of the Office of the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner. That office regulates each of you, while the lobbyists I supervise interact not only with you, but also with public servants and senators. The two offices don't exactly mirror each other.
When someone leaves office, they're currently told to be careful because they won't have the right to lobby for the next five years, and they're told to make sure to communicate with the Office of the Commissioner of Lobbying.
We have a very good relationship, especially when it comes to training, where we try to work together.
