What would people think of a unified "centre"? Bring disaffected PCs, the remnants of the old Liberal Party, Alberta Party and new/other classes of Albertans seeking good governance together. Create a new party that identifies with socially liberal/libertarian and moderate/fiscally conservative principles (think Peter Lougheed, Laurence Decore provincially or Paul Martin or Joe Clark federally) and create a very large tent centrist, pragmatic alternative. Notley and Kenney the ideologues, the new party where most Albertans are. Slava the leader ;-)

So a liberal party in alberta?
If this was such a good idea then why havent the liberals jumped on it yet? Or is your thinking just another step to try and split the conservative vote?
