Information & Ethics committee  No, I have never done that. The candidate does the candidate's stuff. He shouldn't be in the financial stuff unless he's doing a fundraiser, but for the most part he's out on the doors, out on the phones, doing something else other than administrative stuff. Candidates shouldn't necessarily know.

Information & Ethics committee  Oh yes.

Information & Ethics committee  The answer is yes. In the training process, we have Elections Canada guides to dos and don'ts. All the dos and don't are in here. It's a relatively simple process.

Information & Ethics committee  It's because the purpose of it was for advertising, and advertising has always been a little strange thing, because.... How does a person vote? Does a person vote on the basis of the candidate or for the party? In the past number of years, we've gone more towards the party and less towards the emphasis....

Information & Ethics committee  No, I don't believe it's illegal.

Information & Ethics committee  No.

Information & Ethics committee  They printed a lot of signs and they went up around the province. But no, I don't.

Information & Ethics committee  Yes.

Information & Ethics committee  That's correct.

Information & Ethics committee  I think it goes to about Jones Avenue, or something like that.

Information & Ethics committee  I saw them all over Toronto and all over the province.

Information & Ethics committee  No.

Information & Ethics committee  Well, I know of the national team, and I know that a number of people have been through Trinity--Spadina who have been on these various campaign-type things. That's where they go. My riding has a wonderful array of talent. There's great talent. But during campaigns, we split across Canada in order to help the party in general and then come back.

Information & Ethics committee  Extraordinarily successful.

Information & Ethics committee  Yes, and we have a system in place that really helps.
