Alberta Liberals are being
turned into Conservatives -- Alberta Progressive Conservatives are
Conservatives – the Wildrose Party are conservatives -- the BC Liberals are
conservatives -- and the BC Conservatives are conservatives.
I came across a story in Rabble.ca this morning, and I have to say it
sure grabbed my attention … it seems even Alberta's Liberals aren’t sure if
they are Liberals -- or Conservative.
The story is called “Alberta
Liberal Conservative appoints conservative Liberals to battle progressive
conservatives, true conservatives”
Here’s a couple of paragraphs from that story, which like me, will
probably have you understanding why no one seems to know what it means to be a
Liberal in the west:
Until a few days ago, the Liberal caucus had nine members, but Bridget Pastoor, an MLA from Lethbridge, crossed the floor to join the Conservatives. So now she's a traditional Liberal who has become a Conservative, under a Conservative Party led by Premier Alison Redford, who some Albertans accuse of being too liberal. But let's not worry about that right now.

The BC Liberals, by the way,
really are Conservatives, and have been for years.
