But if Sam and Watts are the best that the Liberals can dredge up....damn that's sad. A better option would be Watts stepping in to revive the actual Conservative party here in BC allowing sammy to head the libs giving us a genuine 3 party system here This seems very unlikely.

Stelmach and Redford were not left leaning until they started leading a failing economy. Then they were "red tories" Always laughed at that mentality. Old gov is moving left, vote in another further right gov instead. That kind of thinking left no money in the bank, bills unpaid things not built services cut and slashed to the bone and 0 leadership through the longest oil crash since the 80s. Too bad the economy is rebounding so fast and things are in fact getting built, bills are being paid and services are being met for the people. Hard to campaign by promising to slash even deeper.

Guess we'll see what happens there watching from BC Care to elaborate on this or provide any facts. And btw we are borrowing to pay our bills under this government. What bills were unpaid, what services were cut and what wasn't built under the Conservatives? Considering Alberta has the most and nicest roads in Canada and our teachers, doctors and nurses make the most in Canada what are you getting at? I know you want to praise your national Democratic party again but you don't have to make things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the economy in Alberta is really moving forward under the solid Alberta NDP leadership. Great to see. Good news for BC as well as our two provinces are so connected economically.

Again in both provinces you're in the minority especially Alberta since the ndp hasn't lead in the polls since about election night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Conference Board of Canada forecast in its fiscal snapshot that Alberta’s economy would grow by more than three per cent this year and 2.3 per cent in 2018. But it said economic growth would not reach pre-recession levels. It said the biggest turnaround would be in investment, most of which is expected to come from the energy sector. Keep in mind your links, a few of which are the exact same are just reports not fact. What we do know is we have very high unemployment, massive defecit and a wack of new taxes.

kingofsurrey Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 So glad to see Alberta finally get effective government with the Alberta NDP party. Seems like Alberta is just taking off right now. I know so many young people from the lower mainland now heading their for a brighter future. Hopefully we finally get good government in BC. Reading about Site C and how it was Pirates plundering the bc taxpayer is pretty disturbing.... Finally the truth is starting to come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish your friends all the best but they may be heading back very soon. PUBLISHED - Sep 8, 2017 In August 2017 Alberta's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 8.1%, down from the 8.5% rate that was registered a year earlier, but up from last month's rate of 7.8%. The national unemployment rate was 6.2% in August, down from last August's rate of 7.0% http://economicdashboard.alberta.ca/Unemployment By this logic those young people may as well head to the east coast for a "brighter future."
