How quickly the partisans on this thread forget about the sponsorship scandal where money was stolen from Canadians and people actually went to jail.
I am a Conservative party supporter.

I think, depending on what really happened, that this potentially could be worse than the sponsorship scandal. You are right we don't see any evidence that would convict anyone of anything, but there is a lot of evidence that something happened, that could have potentially changed the results of the election (note: I don't think it did in this case). You can't surmise that nothing happened because people have not been convicted yet, the investigation has just started.

When the investigation is finished, you will likely see people in jail and a drastic shift in the way all parties approach phone calls of any type to voters.
