Faced with the country’s first minority government in eight years, Canada’s most active lobbying groups say they’ll be changing tactics to target a broader range of elected officials and bureaucrats as they look to generate wide support for their key initiatives.
“A minority Parliament really brings with it fresh opportunities and I think what we’re seeing unfold right now is that Canadians want to see their various parties and governments work to deliver competent results,” said Carole Saab, executive director of policy and public affairs with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, the lobby group for almost all local governments in Canada.
