Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to the officials for appearing before the committee.
My question is for all the witnesses and whoever thinks they can best answer this question.
We know that under the proposed framework, individuals or entities who enter into an arrangement with a foreign principal and undertake activities to influence a government or political process in Canada would be required to publicly register.
Could the witnesses talk about the penalties or the consequences that could be imposed if that entity or individual does not register?
