Well, I’ve recovered (more or less from the election).Actually, it turned out pretty much the way Canadians wanted- voters served notice to the Liberals that they must clean house, but also served notice to Mr. Harper and the Conservatives that they will be on a short leash for the duration of their stay in power.
It’s hard not to notice that Alberta is solid blue, but even harder not to notice that Harper owes his minority win not to Alberta, but to an eastern province, namely Quebec. It all serves to show that it’s not the rest of the country that is out of step with Ralph Klein, but rather Ralph who is out of step with the rest of the country.
