I started my campaign on January 2, and if anyone in this room knows the size of Random—Burin—St. George's, I spent the time on my campaign travelling the district. I put over 5,000 kilometres on my car in about 20 days.
I did not in conversation, because of course we talked daily, mention the fact that there was an amount of money that came to our campaign from the federal Conservatives and that we were rather happy because, being late starting, we did not have a lot of money for advertising or anything else that was going on. So of course we were rather excited and thought, now we can really get some things out there.
Then I got told, a couple of days later, that that money had to go back to the national campaign. To the best of my knowledge, my name was never used on any national campaign. As referred to by this gentleman, it might have been the tag line of Random—Burin—St. George's, but the name of Cynthia Downey was never mentioned. If you want to add to my campaign and give me some recognition, I think the name would have certainly helped, as would any help I received from the national campaign.
