Original Toronto Star caption: In Kensington market, Liberal Leader Robert Nixon (left) campaigned Saturday with Fred Kan, the candidate in St. Andrew-St. Patrick riding. While they sampled food in various stores, a poultry merchant handed Nixon a live chicken and, before Nixon could hand it back, it made a campaign donation on his jacket. At Ontario Place, Premier William Davis got ketchup on his coat from a hot dog.
