Should YOU vote for them, probably not. Should the people that they have reached out to and are basically small 'l' liberals for who the Liberals are working, probably yes.

Yes. For some this may be the case but I don't think this is the case with nearly as many people as you think.

Attacked or attempted to begin necessary and meaningful dialogue about the potential, perceived, and real impacts of our industries?
Just because you think that they may not be doing anything for you does not mean they were not doing anything for any Albertans, that's pure rubbish.
In all honesty, I do believe that they are starting to do nothing in the Province. However, I believe this is a symptom rather than the problem. We've simply become a lost cause.

Oh no, they do vote and they vote conservative because they believe that is what they are suppose to do. As they are Albertans, it is Alberta's problem.

Just because they don't bend over backwards to cater to YOUR needs, does not mean that they don't care about any or all Albertans.
