Frick. It seriously would not be hard to pull together a good platform based upon free market environmentalism. With the amount of good policy ideas coming out of the Alberta grassroots, I could pull together a good platform in a day. You'd get some big guns to support you, too.

I agree. I think Hinman understands economics far more than the others. I totally cringed when he said that whole childcare thing, cause he was doing so well, especially on the oil and gas topics... luckily no one really attacked him for it.
It should be so easy to build a party with the type of policy that would topple the established parties. I just wonder where the hell it is. Free-market environmentalism, fiscal conservatism and social moderation. Simple.
