Besides, Alberta just had their guy in power for a decade and Im not sure Harper did much in advancing this provinces cause for the long-term. I don't feel like Alberta's prospects today are better than they were 10 years ago, do you? While the entire world is slowly, but surely, moving forward on issues about the environment and energy, the CP's strategy was not to adapt, but to just try to hammer on the brakes. That might have helped to pad those bonus checks for people for a few years, but in the long-term the O&G industry is not in a pretty place. Can't blame the Liberals for that.

Exactly.
The biggest challenges that Alberta faces are from external causes. Maybe Trudeau can do more to work with those external forces to come to reasonable solutions, because Harper wasn't getting it done. Trudeau has been pretty good at selling ideas during this campaign, so let's see what he can do.
