Alberta Premier Rachel Notley unfussed with unite-the-right ‘do-si-do’
CALGARY — Alberta Premier Rachel Notley says the “little do-si-do” taking place between Alberta’s two right-of-centre parties hasn’t changed how the NDP plans to tackle the next election.
She says her party’s strategy won’t change if longtime Alberta MP Jason Kenney succeeds in making willing dance partners of the Progressive Conservative and Wildrose parties.
“My focus as the premier of the province is to move forward on governing on the basis of the values that I presented to Albertans in the last election, which they endorsed,” she said Monday.
“In the next election — regardless of how many different parties have popped up or disappeared or come together or done the little do-si-do with each other — it won’t matter because we’ll run on our record, the same record that Albertans chose in the last election.”
