Here is The Lobby Monitor's weekly roundup of stories.
This week, we published new registration stories on pipelines, medical marijuana, and the online gaming industry. We also looked at annual lobbying data in the lobbying commissioner's annual report, showing the top lobbied departments and subject matters, and ran a story about May lobbying activity. In addition, we published a story from The Hill Times about lobbying on legislation over the summer.
Don't forget to look at our weekly, sortable lists, published end-of-day every Friday, showing the week's new registrations and communications reports.
Readers please note: The House has risen for the summer and The Lobby Monitor Morning Brief will be moving to a summer schedule starting next week. You will continue to receive comprehensive morning briefings, at about 9 a.m., every Tuesday and Thursday, providing you with summaries of fresh news and information about events in the days ahead. The summer schedule will continue until Parliament returns in September.
Send news tips, or information about upcoming lobby days and industry events, to The Lobby Monitor editor Simon Doyle at sdoyle@lobbymonitor.ca.
