Just to make a point of reality, we have a convention in November. According to our executive director--and I don't think it was disagreed with by the other directors--the registration fees for conventions are receiptable, they're contributions, and things cost money. This will directly penalize the Liberal Party; that's what I think it is connected to.
If the shoe were on the other foot and you guys were having a leadership convention...gosh knows, you've a whole bunch of them through various parties over the time.
It's directly harmful to the democratic process, because the person who goes to a convention will not be able to contribute to the person he or she votes for at the convention, because basically their $1,000 would be gone.
So I think it's unfair. I think it's targeted. I don't want to talk politics, but this is a very political matter. It's mean-spirited and politically targeted.
