Other jurisdictions have no limits. Some provinces also allow donations from unions, trade associations, and corporations. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4590553\" data-originallang=\"fr\">That is not the case in the federal system. There can be no conflict of interest when the rules are followed, and that is what we will continue to do.</p>",
