I would like to go back to the question of jurisdiction.
You mentioned the decision of the Supreme Court. Since I am not a lawyer, I will do my best with this. In my opinion, since current legislation essentially allows the federal government to decide on who will appear to represent a client, the Supreme Court determined that the government could say who it wanted to deal with and that it was its choice.
In my view, Bill C-35 is heading towards something much broader. It is not only a question about regulating who represents a client before the federal government but it is also about regulating the whole profession. This would include consultants who only do preliminary consultations, even before getting to the applications.
Would you agree with me that there is a change in the scope of the legislation? Do you think that, with this new legislation, the Supreme Court could now arrive at a different decision in terms of the federal government's jurisdiction to regulate the profession of consultant?
