Unions, other third parties to reveal ad spending as federal election nears - 2019-06-29

Starting Sunday, Canadians will begin to see which third-party groups will be spending money to sway their votes in the upcoming federal election.
As of June 30, groups that aren't political parties but want a say in the fall campaign will need to register with Elections Canada if they spend more than $500 on political activities, and file interim disclosure forms once they raise or spend more than $10,000.
Groups such as Engage Canada and Shaping Canada's Future stole the spotlight earlier this month with duelling ads during the NBA Finals (Engage Canada attacked the Conservatives; Shaping Canada's Future went after Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau), while groups such as Canada Proud will likely be spending big in the coming months.
