By way of comparison

After a three-week span where the Lingenfelter membership controversy in the Saskatchewan NDP has been discovered, discussed, investigated and publicly reported on, word leaks out that questions about the legality of membership recruitment tactics have also surfaced in the Ontario PC leadership race. So how much commitment to transparency will one find on the right end of the spectrum?
Provincial party president Ken Zeise, who was copied on Finley's missive, said it's a moot point now since the cutoff to join the PC party to vote in the June 27 leadership contest passed at 10 p.m. yesterday.

"Doug's letter didn't go into much detail and I didn't feel the need to follow up," Zeise said in an interview. "As of Thursday at 10 p.m., who will care?"
