They are looking for a merger, and the best way to do that is probably to create a new party and have the others melt their differences in it. The Feds in Alberta still have the organization and the money, Harper could portray himself as the Great Unifier, and as I keep repeating, the province is probably going to be hit by a wave of social unrest this country hasn't seen since the dirty thirties. And in that kind of atmosphere, with those kind of Cons, anything could happen....Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-25791490055553047652016-05-14T22:32:20.213-04:002016-05-14T22:32:20.213-04:00Hi e.a.f...for Harper aAlberta is not a small pond...Hi e.a.f...for Harper aAlberta is not a small pond, it is the sea at the centre of his psyche. There are powerful interests moving around out there who want to see Rachel Notley's head on a pike.

The NDP victory was a fluke, or caused by a situation that won't be replicated. As for the separation angle, who knows? But social unrest in the province can only get worse before it gets better. It has always been easy for some Albertans to blame others, and Harper is a man who has always loved destroying things more than he likes building them. So I wouldn't rule anything out....<br /><br />Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-73777802479969230962016-05-14T22:18:13.627-04:002016-05-14T22:18:13.627-04:00Hi JD....I'm afraid I don't know enough ab...Hi JD....I'm afraid I don't know enough about Alberta politics to know how people would react to Harper's return.

I only see Harper running once again for the leadership of the national con party, more like a "write in" or "draft" because no one else is going to be able to do the job. its not like the party fired him, he resigned on election night. It could provide him with enough space to return. by now he must be missing the trappings of office. Running Alberta just isn't going to work for him. <br /><br />I would suggest its just some right wingers dreaming of some sort of future.<br /><br />Even the oil companies may prefer Notley and Trudeau if they get what they want, i.e. a pipeline east or west. The oil companies know who ever is running the province or country can not change the international price of oil. e.a.f.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-60734158672324292872016-05-14T11:53:52.060-04:002016-05-14T11:53:52.060-04:00Alberta is a very conservative province and after ...Alberta is a very conservative province and after 4 years of the NDP I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Harper could win the election in a landslide.

Harper is the worst Prime Minister and human being to ever walk on Canadian soil.<br /><br />The best thing we can do to avoid this nightmare scenario from ever seeing the light of day is to support the campaign to prosecute him for embezzlement, tax fraud and other crimes. Hopefully that would keep him out of provincial politics and public office in general.<br /><br />Never has there been a more despicable human being so unsuited to serve as Prime Minister of Canada. That's saying a lot, especially after the sleazy Mulroney. We need to do all we can to forcibly retire this most un-Canadian citizen from public service.<br /><br />If this dictator becomes premier of Alberta, I will seriously consider moving out of my beloved Alberta. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-57055973798356160222016-05-14T10:22:59.691-04:002016-05-14T10:22:59.691-04:00Pipelines won't help if they can't make mo...Pipelines won't help if they can't make money, and the tar babies can't break even at less than $70-80.
