If the 2 big options really are unacceptable to you, then I would really encourage you to pass it along to people you know, or even sign up to volunteer.
We've only got so much money and resources, and for people that want to see a change, now is a great time to do a little bit to see that.
It doesn't take much time to have a read, or pass it along.
I hope you like what you see in that link, and I hope you want to do a little more to see the changes you want.

I respect what you're saying. But for example, my twitter feed is set up to follow the major news networks, CBC, Global, CTV, I'm also following Ipolitics, and National News Watch. I also personally follow a bunch of media types from national to provincial.
The Alberta party doesn't really pop up at all in any of these. And its tough to tell someone to search for their website or twitter, if that's the strategy its a losing one because most people who aren't politically engaged aren't going to do searches.
The Alberta Party has to find a way to gain attention, and take better advantage of the press, I mean the last Alberta Party centric article that popped up on my feed was the nominations paper stuff with the leader.
90% of what people base their views on is what's delivered to their desktop, not what they have to find, we're a society of instant gratification, service me individuals.
The hardcore political junkies that do active searches, I guarantee that most of them are ingrained in one political party and changing their vote is impossible. If you want to make real steps in this election, you need to find a way to engage the undecided who are waiting for information not searching it out.
