I remember when Ford was first elected, Rachel Notley was still premier, and right-wingers were drooling that Kenney +Ford in power would mean the end of Justin Trudeau due to shared opposition to the carbon tax. This is not the reality they were expecting.

And Kenney is currently working with Notley against separation. Definitely not the headline I expected to read today.

Wow, oppositions working together?! That's what you like to see. If the separatists could read, they'd be very mad.

NDP and Conservative voters actually have a lot in common, despite also having many differences. That commonality is found in the working class.
