Yes, and quite frankly, I agree with you. It's well known amongst all our colleagues, even on the other side, that the national campaign has a tremendous impact on the local campaign. There are very few candidates who win the election in their riding based on their own efforts. The national campaign plays a tremendous role.
What you are confirming to me is that your campaign team had a decision to make. This was not forced upon you. You had a decision to make and you made a decision.
All I was laying out beforehand was that your decision was the right one. It was legal. It was your decision. You could say yes; you could say no.
You've answered my question, so I thank you, and I hope my comments have helped clarify this matter and the kangaroo court that we're sitting in and how one-sided it is.
Thank you.
