The Royal Bank has 650 branches across Canada, and could donate $1,000 650 times to a given party or to a series of candidates. Somewhat ironically, Mr. Kingsley answered that the Royal Bank could donate no more than $3.22, because if the maximum donation of $1,000 were divided by 308—the number of candidates—the final donation would come to $3.22 per candidate.
Un peu par ironie, M. Kingsley m'a répondu que la Banque Royale ne pourrait donner que 3,22 $, parce qu'en prenant le maximum de 1 000 $ et en le divisant par 308 candidats, cela fait 3,22 $ par candidat.
