Note: Bourassa-Chretien:0550pes (QUEBEC CITY) Quebec Premier Robert Bourassa denies that he was formerly employed by Liberal leadership contender Jean Chretien. Chretien made a joking reference saying how he knew Bourassa in the past in Ottawa. Bourassa says Chretien was a parliamentary assistant when Bourassa worked as a tax adviser to the Ministry of Finance. Bourassa says he thinks he made more money than Chretien, so he wasn't his employee as Chretien inferred. Kelly/Standard Broadcast Wire
