Government ad spends soared in '98

Article Abstract:

Total federal government spending on advertising in Canada reached C$89.1 million in 1998, up by 43% from C$62.2 million in 1997. The growth has been attributed to the reactivation of campaigns such as the anti-smoking ads and the desire of some federal departments to communcate directly with the public. Most provincial government also increased their ad spending such as Ontario which spent C$50.6 million (up by 44%), Quebec with C$39.9 million (+ 18%), British Columbia with C$31.2 million (+26%) and Saskatchewan with C$7.1 million (+45%).
