To Slave, I can't see a future where Raj is our great visionary leader of the Liberal party who sells the province on a new way forward. I think it will take someone new and probably under a banner that isn't red.

Look you guys got more seats in the election, but I didn't think that was on the line or I would've worked a lot harder!
I do agree that Raj will probably not be the visionary leader. I just think that its amusing that the ideas here that are coming for progressive taxes, sales taxes and increased taxes for people at certain income levels are exactly what the Liberals were arguing for, and what was presented as platform. Just goes to show that policy is worth very little these days.
