I was not aware that any ads dealing with the Labrador riding campaign were run. But I talked with both Mr. Barnes and, more specifically, Mrs. Singleton. When contact was first made with her by the Conservative Party of Canada, she asked whether or not the funding could be used by us to purchase television advertising. She was told no, that it would be a part of the national campaign. As a result, there was no identification of the candidate or the Labrador riding, period.
