In 2009, Conflict of Interest Commissioner Paul Fraser ruled that Bruce received no direct benefit of his former cabinet post, despite acting as a paid consultant to the Cowichan Journey of a Generation Society and Cowichan Tribes within two years of losing in the 2005 election. Bruce was, however, found in contravention of the Federal Lobbyists' Code of Conduct for not registering.[3]
