Show Notes

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney won a decisive victory in 2019 on the strength of his messaging about the economy and jobs and being a stronger option than the NDP. 

 

Halfway through his mandate, and a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, support for the government has dropped and even the party’s base is frustrated. 

 

Calgary Sun columnist Rick Bell joins the show to discuss when things started to turn for the UCP, why voters are frustrated, and what Kenney could do to turn things around.
