I wouldn't be too upset if the NDP went back in. Kenney seems a little too abrasive for me. I think ending the Carbon Tax will create more problems than benefit for us. I also admire RN for her tireless effort in getting the word out to the rest of Canada concerning our need for more pipelines.

I also think Alberta's debt situation is not that critical, and we can afford a little more social spending...until such time as the boom times return, if they ever will to the level experienced in the past.

I compare our situation today in Alberta to the 80's, after the NEP, when the economy was fairly stagnant for a significant period of tme.
