4 Q. She is one of the managers at the -----
5 A. No, she is Cam's wife.
6
7 Q. But she is one of the managers at the store?
8 A. No, she does not manage the store.
9
10 Q. Right.
11 A. I am not sure if the lawyers gave it to her and then
12 she gave it to me. She just -----
13
14 Q. Right. So what role did Cam Ballantyne's wife play in
15 this? Where does she come into the picture? What was she
16 doing? Did she work at the store?
17 A. No, she does not.
18
19 Q. Does she have any relatives working at the store?
20 A. Right now Alison works there -- his daughter.
21

39 A. I would say I saw less of her then than I do now.

41 Q. But she did work in the store helping out?
42 A. I do not know if it was just helping Cam or what-not.
43 I mean, I do not know. I do not know if she gets paid for
44 it. I think she just comes in to do it.
45
46 Q. But you were not surprised when it was her giving you the
47 cheque?

50 statement Miss Iurilla says "statutory attendance fee" and
51 it sounds to me, if that is right, as if the person who
52 subpoenas someone to attend has to pay them an attendance

54
