Provincial legislation cannot control the airwaves. Federal legislation can. And free broadcast time is very attractive. It's not print media that convey the messages today; it's free broadcasting time. We have the advent of the Internet and all the social networks now, and I know social networks existed for the provincial referendum, but in my view, if you can facilitate the creation of referendum committees and they gain access to 90 minutes right now, and it is fairly apportioned among them, they will do ads and they will invade the networks. It will compete with the election, obviously. I think what would happen between the two events would be more a matter of confusion than a matter of not knowing.
