text: A well written and informative article of the debate to achieve a united right in Alberta. 
  
   I would disagree that Conservatism is in decline in Alberta.  I base this on the rarity of a meaningful federal presence of the LPC/NDP in Ottawa, and that the NDP are in power in AB as a result of the division of the PC and WR Parties.  Had Prentice survived, he would be a contender for the CPC leadership.  And then there is Kenney and Jean. Two former MPs with impeccable leaderships skills and proven record of upholding democracy.  And then there is Harper, a highly skilled PM who served Canada well. The wonderful  Ambrose.  Help me out here.  By every definition, this is an embarrassment of riches- a robust political vision that governed this country without requiring Quebec's support.  They would have preferred it.  That being said, I am not sure there is a stronger and more Conservative presence in this country than what is found in Alberta, having a strong and agreeable message.
