That's not what you said, so we want to clarify. You don't mean to say it would ban “all food and beverage advertising” during these times.

President and Chief Executive Officer, Association of Canadian Advertisers
No, I said it “could”. Yes, you're right. You're right, the word is “could”.

It could if it was high in saturated fat, sugars, or sodium and it was playing—

Okay, but that's not what we're talking about. The statement you made was that it could—

We're going in a circle here. This is not what we're saying. You're saying “all food and beverage advertising”, not all with the qualifier “if”.

Could.
