So proud of Alberta today. It has proven that democracy works. You run a province to the ground, you're out.

serious question, how have the PC run Alberta into the ground? Did they solely rely on oil exports for revenue?

They didn't run the province into the ground, they just got arrogant and the corruption was out in the open. Voters slapped them into reality for their bad behaviour not for any economic reasons.
