Of course. I don't look at this along party lines. If I recall, in the end the Guelph riding in question was won handily by the Liberal incumbent.

But at the time of the election, when the calls occured nobody knew for certain what the outcome would be. By saying that the after the fact the calls "didn't matter" and we shouldn't bother with any electoral recourse, you're setting a precedent for future elections. A blanketed heavy handed punishment would do more in the future to prevent this from happening again, then a half-hearted response.
