I don't think for a second that Harper or his inner circle are involved. They have way bigger things to deal with than with a little scheme like this. Its not just some kid either though; way too big to just be an individual. If you have even half of the ridings alleged as involved that means about 20 ridings. Even at $200 (which I would say is nearly impossible to do that cheap), you're looking at $4000. My guess is that this is at leas closer to $10,000 if not more, but at $4000 this isn't likely to be a one-man show.

Those pre-recorded phone messages lack the personal touch but they're dirt cheap. Based on RackNine's lowest rate of 1.9 cents per minute, a one-minute call to 10,000 people would cost a client just $190.
