Right off the bat, everyone on here that has seen me post about politics knows I am an NDP supporter.

However, I do wonder about people calling Alison Redford a weak candidate or a weak leader. She has one hell of a resume.

She has worked as:

- Senior Policy Advisor for Joe Clark, Secretary of State for External Affairs and in the Office of the Prime Minister of Canada from 1988 to 1990.
- Special legal advisor to the UN.
- Technical advisor on constitutional and legal reform issues in Africa.
- Communications officer on the committee for justice reform in Alberta.
- Appointed by the UN as one of four International Election Commissioners to administer the 2005 Afghanistan elections.
- Her work with the UN has also included assignments to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Namibia, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, the Philippines, and Vietnam.

- Alberta's Minister of Justice and Attorney General under Premier Ed Stelmach.
