Thank you.
Is there a model that the Canadian government could draw inspiration from? Does the European Economic Community have any regulations on transparency? Are there rules, standards or industry standards applied in other countries?
Personally, I am very much in favour of self-regulation, because it falls directly within the purview of industry. I'm convinced that you are much more knowledgeable about your industry's intricacies than a politician. When the government regulates, it tends to nitpick and to go into too much detail. This ultimately becomes a burden on people.
Are there other models of self-regulation, or government regulation adopted in other countries? I'm thinking mainly of the European Economic Community.
