EDMONTON — The writ is expected to drop Monday in Alberta for an election campaign that effectively began weeks ago with both Danielle Smith’s United Conservatives and Rachel Notley’s New Democrats warning of the dystopian future should their opponents triumph.The UCP was bleeding support in its traditional rural strongholds over former premier Jason Kenney’s COVID-19 health restrictions and vaccine mandates.
The NDP would need to win big in a city that is traditionally conservative blue. Polls suggest it is possible, but the NDP would need help elsewhere to eke out a squeaker majority in the 87-seat legislature. “They can't decide what's best, which is most important than right now. So for those people, it could come down to leadership.”
Politicians on both sides have already hit the doors and pronounced policy promises, leaving unrepresented parties in the legislature, such as the Liberals and Alberta Party, fighting to crowbar their way into the public consciousnessUnder Smith, the UCP has pushed controversial autonomy initiatives, such a provincial police force, tax collection agency and pension plan.
