Exactly. My point is that Calgary Confed is winnable for the Liberals if you can pull a few more percentage points with a strong candidate like Hogan and everything aligns as it seems to be at the moment.

Is it an easy riding to flip? No.
But if you have strong leader/Liberal vibes across the country (which we have at the moment and did in 2019) + a strong local candidate + weaker NDP/Green or weak national campaign + a weak or unliked CPC candidate, Calgary Confed could go Liberal. But you need all of those cards to align.
