Using quarterly data, the notion of Granger causality is employed to to test the causal relationship existing between advertising and sales of cheese and butter in Canada. Results suggest that advertising expenditures influences sales of both commodities. However, sales appear to influence neither cheese or butter advertising expenditures.
