Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to apologize to our guests here today. You come to this place expecting a level of debate that's commensurate with the work that you've put into it and you have to listen to the politicking from the other side. It's beyond belief.
Mr. Staples, as a lobbyist—because this point was raised, and it's a fair point to raise—quite often you're actually seeking better legislation and not necessarily seeking money. The implication was that lobbyists are all out there to gain money. Is that a fair view?
