Please, Kent Hehr will be a PC MLA in the election after this one. The PC party is now 'Progressive' enough and has lost enough of the 'Conservative' part to be the perfect home for him. The Liberals are going to be wiped out of existance when it's apparent there's no difference between them and the NDP and that the PC's now have the back of the Public Unions. A lot of the traditional Liberal support in the past came from the "Ralph cut our wages 5% in the mid 90s, fata him" crowd or the "Rich Province, Poor Student" crowd who wanted handouts for Post Secondary education. Redford scooped up all these folks with her last week deal to propel her to power in the PC leadership race. It's clearly her strategy to consolidate the leftties and keep the Red Tories.
