It's only a catch-22 because the Alberta Liberals and NDP had been run by incompetent buffoons for decades. In a normal scenario, the PCs (including Wildrose, as an offshoot) wouldn't typically have held 90% of the seats, meaning the opposition on the left would actually have experienced politicians already available to them.
On the flip side, Joe Ceci, who does have 20 years experience in politics, seems to be intent on battling McCuaig-Boyd for the title of least competent cabinet minister. So it doesn't seem like having experience is helping either.
