What DOES the Alberta NDP need right now?

I think primarily, they would like votes.

That doesn’t help then when there’s no election for over three years.

I helped campaign for the Alberta NDP. Two things I noticed. First, it wasn’t a good experience. Second, that was their best chance. If they can’t win against Danielle Smith and her posse of insane clowns, what do they need before they can appeal to a wide variety of Albertans?

If I have any realistic alternative that’s not the UCP or NDP in the next election, that’s where my vote will go.

Then don't fight

Alberta has voted for conservative idiots for 96 of the last 100 years. I am not hopeful that Alberta is a viable concept.
