Taking it to the Hill

"The standing committees of the House of Commons and Senate make it possible for practically any person or group to access the policy-making process and become a lobbyist. This is a forum for politicians and Canadians to clash or collaborate. But how does a witness effectively manage a situation that can become so newsworthy and, at times, so confrontational?" "This handy and complete guide coaches prospective witnesses to do it right. It flags the parliamentary rules, the process, the pitfalls and opportunities of getting heard at federal standing committees. It also reveals the unique dynamic among witnesses, politicians, assistants, interest groups and the media." "Targeted primarily at those who have a stake in advancing a cause "on the Hill", this guide reveals the lessons and advice of experienced parliamentarians and those who work behind the doors of Parliament. It's a "how-to" for lobbyists and advisors that should also be a "must-read" for students of political science and public administration."--Jacket.
