It really is baffling. What, exactly, is the point of the provincial Liberal party? Their brand is toxic in this province. The creation of the Alberta Party was a recognition that province could use a centrist voice, and that the Liberal party wasn't it. But the two parties cannibalize each others votes and dilute an already weak candidate pool. Right-wing parties don't seem to have a problem recognizing that they're splitting the vote and carrying out a merger. Why is it unthinkable to centrist parties?
