Lobbying registry · British Columbia and City of Toronto and City of Winnipeg

Canadian Federation of Independent Business

Canadian Federation of Independent Business appears in the public Canadian lobbying registries. Clarion compiles its recorded registry activity — what it lobbies on, the public office holders it has logged meetings with, and its registered lobbyists — each line citing the official record. Recorded activity only, never a position or an outcome.
