      Colorful Dan Casey, executive director of the Ontario Liberal party, gleefully admits he's packed a meeting or two himself, but it's his job to see it doesn't happen at Ontario meetings where voting delegates to the leadership convention will be chosen. It's a matter of conscience, he said, when picking Canada's PM.
