AlbertaTory: Questions before Answers
http://albertatory.blogspot.com/2011/01/questions-before-answers.html
Political musings from a well-travelled conservative. Saturday, January 29, 2011. This post isn't going to be a terribly long one. mainly because I still have less to say than I have to think about. We're 4 days into the unofficial PC leadership race and people seem to be tripping over themselves try to find the "answer" for the PC party. Depending on who you ask, that answer could be Ted Morton, Doug Horner, Alison Redford, Jim Prentice, Jim Dinning, Dave Hancock, and the list goes on. I'm long-time Alb...

http://albertatory.blogspot.com/2011/02/is-alberta-liberal-party-worth-saving.html
Political musings from a well-travelled conservative. Tuesday, February 1, 2011. Is the Alberta Liberal Party worth saving? With the resignation of Alberta Liberal Leader Dr. David Swann today, some tough questions are being raised about the viability and the very future of the Official Opposition. The title of this blog asks the basic question: Is the Alberta Liberal Party worth saving? My answer, which may surprise some, is yes. But hear me out. My point is that, generally speaking, at least one in eve...

AlbertaTory: Catching up
http://albertatory.blogspot.com/2011/03/catching-up.html
Political musings from a well-travelled conservative. Sunday, March 6, 2011. Friends, I've been a bad and neglectful blogger. Unlike the previous incarnation of this blog, your humble author now has all of those distractions of a real life that seem to get in the way of blogging. Not a good excuse, of course, but its mine and I'm sticking to it. Speaking of royalties, oil and gas, and the like, the Edmonton Journal recently posted an editorial criticizing. The Government of Alberta's new well drilling in...

AlbertaTory: Building Fort McMurray: Divisive politics don't add up
http://albertatory.blogspot.com/2011/02/building-fort-mcmurray-divisive.html
Political musings from a well-travelled conservative. Wednesday, February 16, 2011. Building Fort McMurray: Divisive politics don't add up. Those of you who know me know that I wear my hometown of Fort McMurray on my sleeve. Although I now live in Edmonton, I maintain a keen interest in the affairs of Fort McMurray. The success of Fort McMurray and the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo is, I firmly believe, vital to our continued prosperity as a province. Vyboh was tweeting throughout the day about h...

AlbertaTory: Raj and Hugh: a perfect pair?
http://albertatory.blogspot.com/2011/03/raj-and-hugh-perfect-pair.html
Political musings from a well-travelled conservative. Monday, March 7, 2011. Raj and Hugh: a perfect pair? Today's anticipated Sherman Showdown came and went in the Alberta Legislature without a bang. In fact, you'd almost struggle to find even a whimper in the good doctor's "revealing" documentation. That any MLA could find in their respective inboxes. As being like a dog that chases cars without actually knowing what he'd do if he managed to catch one. He will regularly ask questions alleging some ...

Political musings from a well-travelled conservative. Tuesday, January 29, 2008. Changing MLAs, Changing Climates, Changing Debates. News has broken that Calgary Montrose MLA Hung Pham has decided not to seek re-election. Based on the party's treatment of volunteers who disqualified a potential nomination competitor in 2004. As for the Liberals who are trying to make hay with this story, I would hasten to remind them. Of an MLA they weren't terribly fond of that they "dealt with" last year. For the recor...

Political musings from a well-travelled conservative. Wednesday, February 25, 2009. The Enlightened Savage: Revealed! Good afternoon, friends. It seems as though I've been called out by my friend the Enlightened Savage. Let me provide some context:. As you all know, I've been on a blogging hiatus for a while. Recently, I commented on facebook that I had a blog post brewing in my head. This, it seems, was well-received by some of you out there. If ES wants to play hardball, I'll play. How do I know this?

PC Leadership: first ballot predictions. September 16, 2011. I pride myself on having made some pretty accurate predictions. In the 2006 Progressive Conservative Party leadership contest and so on this, the eve of the first ballot of the 2011 edition I feel it is necessary to register my thoughts. With that in mind, I think the two front-runners have been clear and consistent all the way along and they are Gary Ma. R and Ted Morton. Similarly, both Rick Orman. 1 Gary Mar (30-35%). 2 Ted Morton (25-30%).
