    …and yet, she’d get reelected today.

    She would, and she will. Rachel Notley has stepped down because she knows she can’t beat the UCP (or any single right-wing party), no matter what deranged psychopath is running it.

    Worst of all, Poilievre is courting her hard - and has every intention of copying every one of her policies that can translate to the national arena.

      I don’t know, her numbers seem to have gone slightly downwards since the election, and like I said she barely scraped in. Keep in mind this is FPTP and most of the real rednecks are stacked in the same rural ridings.

      It’s more like anyone’s game than hopeless.

        Everything you say is true, I just don’t believe in my heart that she would lose.

        When she got the leadership nomination, we were cheering. “The UCP just lost the electiom by electing that psycho!”
