It's going to work, too. The PCs and Wildrose will merge, win the next election handily, and the dynasty they're going to create will make the previous one seem short.

This is hilarious, the NDP was doing the same thing when they were in opposition. But I'm assuming you saw it as the plucky small party fighting against the big business conservatives, and it was heroic.
You know that this is what the opposition does, that they are the critics of the government. What are they supposed to do? Cheerleader, 2-4-6-8 who do we appreciate Rachel Rachel Rachel?
this is pretty much whining at its best, what your doing.
first of all, yes we know that Oil pricing has had a massive effect on this province.
But the continued delays of the Royalty Review. Holding off on a budget til after the federal election, and having our MLA's traveling to other provinces to campaign for the NDP. The poor sell job and implementation of Bill 6. The pushing off of the opening of the legislature. The bizarre budget with over optimistic oil price expectations in it. The taxation increases. the impending Carbon tax that's going straight to our utility bills, but is going straight into general revenues. Notley's caustic simmer down comments?
Of course nobody is feeling confident in this government, and we've seen investments and business activity slide because of it in concert with the falling Oil Prices.
Yeah, oil prices aren't their fault, but they're doing very little to aid the situation, and seem to be digging a deeper hole.
But its all the fault of big business, they should just run status quo because Rachel and the NDP says so.
Basically now, the NDP is so fricken paralyzed by what they've done that they're holding everything up.
But that's not their fault, if only the mean opposition would get on board with the NDP vision, everyone would be alright.
Come on man.
