Yeah, I just don't see it. There aren't enough of them to overtake the right-leaning folks in Calgary and the NDPers in Edmonton, and rural Alberta has always been super conservative. It's the same problem we have in BC. The NDP controls Vancouver Island and big chunks of the mainland, but interior BC is pretty much all BC Liberals, and both sides aren't willing to take a risk on a new party because they're afraid if they do then their unfavoured big party will gain more control
