No, that's a draft with both outcomes. Or as Paul Fairie put it on Twitter, "Dewey Defeats Truman/Truman Defeats Dewey." Maclean's actually did that in '57 with a Liberal majority editorial.

My reaction is meh. On one hand no more Anders, on the other a Red replacing a Blue in Alberta. So hoping for a Blue challenge in '19.

In other AB news: Rajotte still contemplating a PC leadership bid, but waiting on Mandel and Prentice. Nomination battle I really care about is Edmonton-St. Albert.

I don't usually post UPAC stuff because I don't follow it that much, but Normandeau's office was allegedly at the centre of a criminal conspiracy.

Thanks to Smid for reminding me about this article: only 3 '93 Reformers, including Harper, will be around after next year.

Completely agree with Granatstein.

Report that Horwath will pull the trigger. FWIW Bisson says "grossly inaccurate speculation."

Herb Gray has died at 82. RIP.
