Well I would also note that with Kent Hehr in Calgary Centre that the Liberals have both a star candidate and someone qualified. Kent was an excellent two term MLA for the Liberals and frankly he enjoys cross-party support because of his work ethic and reasoned approach. I think that he wins in Calgary, which will be a first for the Liberals since 1968.
