It's very much the former PROGRESSIVE Conservatives (and as I recall it was Bran Mulroney who used to like to say in certain places - likely not in the west) that he was "a Progressive Conservative with the emphasis on the adjective rather than the noun" who support Mr. Casey and in actual fact, constitute the vast majority of the riding. In numerous ridings across the Maritimes, the Alliance take over gave them coffers full of money - all raised by Red Tories and others who do not nor ever did support the values espoused by the current Masters of the party now legally termed Conservative. So, if one party wants their money back because a politician crossed the floor, what does one do in this case? Doesn't Mr. Casey get the money - which HIS official agent (under the erections Act, it is the candidate who appoints the Official Agent during an election)? It's a rhetorical question - I wold not hold my breath waiting were I Mr. Casey. Look at what happened to Mr. Orchard who brought kn oodles of money to the former Tory party and he had to go to court. Of course now he is a Liberal but that's another sad saga... I do not want to digress and if anyone wants to take the subject elsewhere, please do but why does Mr. Orchard harbour so much antipathy toward the NDP?
