Two Tory back-benchers jumped to the WRA today, raising the stakes for Mr Stelmach’s government. While I don’t have much interest in getting into ‘domestic disputes’ (these are disenchanted Tories) this opens up the sensible center where the Alberta Liberals stand. People are hungry for moral government with a business-like approach to financial management, resource development, and public services. Elected Tories are now going to make a decision about staying with a sinking ship, moving hard to the Right or moving to the center, where a balance of public and private provide for Alberta for the longer term.

This is good news for political revival in Alberta!
