Mr. Speaker, I am always interested in what my colleague has to say. He has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the subject.
I would like to take this a bit further. When we talk about lobbying, we are talking about a legal activity. I do not want to put words in his mouth and I have my own thoughts on this. When we talk about lobbying, of course there is lobbying by all the major corporations, but there are also interest groups that organize to lobby the government.
How is it that groups that have demonstrated for major changes to employment insurance, for instance, have never won?
When different points are raised about bringing in a pharmacare program, why do the pharmaceutical companies win and not the interest groups?
There are examples of this when it comes to the environment, but I am running out of time. I want to hear from my colleague.
Why is it always the major corporations who win?
