Reluctant to talk about her elecâ€" tion bid in the past tense ("I don‘t want to waste the mental energy") Campbell said she must remained focused on winning until Oct. 25th. . s es She did, however, say that her camâ€" paign was initially conducted in a manâ€" ner which she thought would best showâ€" case the Tories‘ economic vision. "hopeful" message wasn‘t getting through the media to the people. Try as she would to remain flexible and seek other ways to ensure a clear translation, the prime minister said it is only now that many voters are seeing the light. Campbell still believes Tories can win election As a result, she took exception to the notion that her appearance in Oakville was designed to bolster the flagging forâ€" tunes of local Conservatives and said she was here to merely support Mulvale and Campbell said her party knows what needs to be done but unfortunately their who had worked to 10 months teaching id she was more frusâ€" untry after only one § | to leave." said of gunfire tear rtâ€"Auâ€"Prince d had just one ing to have to 6t NT vervthing to th n 1€ rt Adair return Of just on Marianne Hawthorne and Anita Agar dry some apple slices at the Thomas House Museum during a recent fall open house.

"Seats are important to us," she said. A lot can still be accomplished in the waning days of the campaign, said Campbell, since so many undecided votâ€" ers will soon realize that both the Libeaal and Reform Party platforms are shams. Earlier Tuesday afternoon Campbell spoke to a crowd of largely party faithful during a wellâ€"choreographed rally at the Oakville Centre. It was here she came closest to admitting the strain of her election bid. "If Canadians want change they don‘t have to cast a protest vote," said Campbell, explaining that her job now is to clarify the importance of choosing the right leader to take Canada into the next century.
