It seems pretty likely that, at a minimum, someone funneled a whole bunch of money to him through intermediaries at that time - I do not know if that in itself violates campaign finance rules, but "I see nothing weird about any of this" is just... come on.

I'm not trying to be obtuse here, just understand what's being suggested. Isn't campaign fundraising done by events and solicitations? So wouldn't they naturally be close together if from the same place, especially really close together? I don't think we're talking about random online donations. More likely solicitation by campaigns looking for funding either having a campaign event where they ask or local reps calling for donations. As for being out of his riding, he was running to be Prime Minister. I could be way off and maybe something sneaky is here, but there's lots of very reasonable explanations. I don't even know what normal campaigns raise. Is $60k a lot of money? I dunno
