But let me just point out again that what we do know is this. Had those mailings, the mailings that were found to be in violation of the rules, been sent to the House administration, they wouldn't have been approved. That would have been the end of it. The NDP then could still send them out, if they wanted, but they'd have to pay for them and the postage. But at least the House would have been able to step in and say, “Sorry, you can't used franked envelopes.”
It seems to me a very simple fix to require all mailings by political parties who wish to use franked envelopes to be viewed and approved or rejected by House administration. Would that not be a fairly simple approach to fix this complex problem; a simple solution?
