Scott Reid…said lobbying is legally defined as trying to influence public policy.
It's better to be safe than sorry. I have called my MP’s office in the past to provide my feedback on the public policy issues of the day. Moreover, my political opinions are now out in the open here at Nice Comfy Fur. What else is the purpose of calling one’s MP or writing a political blog if not to influence public policy?
You too can be a Registered Lobbyist by registering online at the Office of the Registrar of Lobbyists. It’s free.
Think of the benefits. You can call your MP or blog about political issues with impunity. As an added bonus, Scott Reid or Scott Brison can never make unfounded accusations about you not registering as a Lobbyist.
Update: To register as a lobbyist at the link above, you must first create an account. Scroll down the page and click Account Creation.
