So I went to the candidates websites...
Scott Arnott (lib) - worked for Suncor, Atco and Deloitte as a CPA and CFA. Qualified and experienced to help energy industry break through inter- provincial trade. Damn, exactly what I want. Seen 1 lawn sign and i think it was his house.
Shuv Majumdar (cpc) - website doesn't have a bio. Wikipedia says he met polli-b at a U of C conservative club. Most known for being a part of the kamikaze candidate scandal. Worked for some right wing think tanks. No notable experience of any kind.
Pretty tough call here guys. I love how the party of common sense tells you exactly who they are in the most up front ways.
Also, a true f u to the city running such a weak candidate in a stronghold. Just another indication that alberta has made itself politically irrelevant through subservience to a single party.

I’m in the same riding and I have seen a few Liberal signs, but not many.
Our riding is a microcosm of the whole election though. If you were hiring and those two resumes come across your desk, it’s blatantly obvious who you hire. That’s how it should go for the entire election.
