No donation limits allow companies, unions to fund N.L. election campaigns

ST. JOHN'S - As members of Newfoundland and Labrador's main political parties travel the province to campaign for votes, their signs, pamphlets, buses and gas bills are paid for in part by unions and private companies.

The province is one of two in Canada with no rules limiting donations to political parties by corporations, unions or individuals. Kelly Blidook, a political scientist in St. John's, says that should have changed long ago.
