Mushy Middle A Canadian Value

"This says it all bout Canadian Politics this weeked.Everybody's second choice rises to top It was the case for both the Federal Liberals and for the Alberta PC's. Ed Stelmach Is Alberta's New Premier"

Dinning Exposed

"Calgary Sun Columnist Rick Bell, himself being attacked by BT bloggers, takes a swipe at the crowd of syncophantic Moronites, err Mortonites in the blogosphere. Unfortunately it's a column he should have wrtitten a week ago. He reminds them that it was Dinning, not Ralph,...

The Other Alberta Boom

"Homelessness. I got a job but no home. It’s an unfortunate side effect of Alberta’s red hot economy. With the vacancy rate near the zero mark, and soaring house prices, the homeless count is rising in Edmonton with few short term solutions in sight."

I Am Lib-Blogging Too

"Look I am a political junkie with the best of them, I actually went to my neighbourhood pub last night and because there were no hockey games on, I got to watch the Liberal convention much to the chagrin of my bar pals. Though they understand that for me politics is like...

Snorefest

"Ok Colin James performing at the Liberal Cabaret was a better choice to watch than the Talking Heads Alberta PC leadership debate on GlobalTV. What a snorefest."

Another MSM Live Blogger MIA

"Edmonton Journal political affairs reporter Larry Johnsrude claims to have been live blogging from the Calgary Roundup Centre on Saturday during the PC Leadership vote. Really. Must have been doing it at the same time his pals at the Calgary Herald were."

Edmonton Journal PC Leadership Poll

"This is a non scientific poll on the Edmonton Journal Website. The second ballot in the race to become Alberta Conservative leader and the next premier is Saturday. Who would you vote for? Jim Dinning 45.32 % Ted Morton 14.27 % Ed Stelmach 40.41 %"

Is It Jim Or Ed, Ted?

"Another Morton flip flop."

Alberta Business Back PC Candidates

"Two interesting Edmonton Journal articles on which Alberta companies back PC leadership candidates. Dinning of course has the backing of the majority of big corporations in the province. But Mark Norris, had the backing of his bosses and their corporation, The Edmoton Oilers."

Ted Morton Calgary Seperatist

"Not satisfied with promoting Alberta Seperatism with his Firewall Alberta letter, PC leadership candidate, the Reform Republican, Ted Morton is now embracing the politics of two solitudes. If elected Alberta will have two capitals. One in Calgary and one in Edmonton."

Stelmach Up The Middle

"Ted Morton is scared. He announced yesterday that he was now the moderate candidate for leadership of the provincial PC's. With major endorsements from Hancock and Oberg and now Norris, Stelmach is gaining strength in numbers. And this scares Morton."

Morton's Harpocrisy

"Mr. Morton, whose platform includes less influence from Ottawa, is confident he has enough untapped support to win. This from the guy who is supported by the Federal Conservative Party, the current New Government of Canada,his old Reform Party pals Harper, Day, Kenney, etc. "

Edmonton PC Votes

""The Edmonton vote was split up all over the place. Dinning had 5575 in Edmonton and Hancock had 4995. No doubt some Hancock votes will bleed to Dinning. Oberg was third in Edmonton with 3228 and they have no reason to go to Dinning but will bleed some to Morton who had...
