I am one of those conservatives that voted for the NDP in protest against the failed PC government. Man was I shocked when they won.

Since then, at least as far as Notley's polices have resulted in a degree of social license for our resources, I have been pleasantly surprised by her stewardship of the struggling economy.

I was impressed by Alexander when he was Ambassador to Afghanistan. My impression of him tanked when he joined Harper's cabinet as immigration minister. If he ends up as PC leader I will be voting Liberal again.
