So I don't necessarily think voting CPC is an endorsement of Kenney and the UCP, but rather it is disapproving of the Liberal party. I think the UCP are going to have a very tough time winning the next provincial election, specifically if Kenney is still the UCP leader at that time.
This is a very fair assessment. If anything the UPC/Kenney cost the CPC seats in Alberta.
UCP does NOT equal the CPC especially since O'Toole was appointed leader and has been moving more to the centre on several issues.
Also, CPC did worse in Alberta then last election (failed to capture 3 seats 2-NDP, 1-Liberal) which is the worst showing by conservative leaning parties I can ever remember.
