The Not-So-Great Debate

Whew! I gotta say, this is some pretty boring action on debate night in Alberta. Maybe it’s because I’ve been watching the American debates of late. They’re great! Wait… The States… I digress.

Anyway, those are some serious debates with some heavy hitters. I know the stakes are greater South of the line, but that doesn’t mean our leaders have to look so minor-league when they cut each other up.

Here’s what I’ve gathered so far:

Ed Stelmach - Looks like Ernie of Bert & Ernie fame. Saves time by only using a 25 letter alphabet. (No T!)

Kevin Taft - He really took that “neither” response to heart. Came out of the gate trying to be really personable… dude. Also, seems to like choo-choo trains with all the “runaway train” and “derailed” comments.

Brian Mason - Seems like a capable leader, but has the worst ideas in all of Alberta. It’s fun to watch a guy think he can get elected while he bashes oil companies.

Paul Hinman - Badly needs a new suit.

Go vote on March 3rd.
