Albertans May Be In Snap Election Soon
Alberta's Premier Ed Stelmach is reported to be considering dropping an election writ in the next few days that would see Albertan's going to the polls in early December.
Stelmach's Conservatives have been struggling in the polls lately, but his recent increase to Alberta's oil royalty rates is clearly popular with much of the electorate.
The oil industry, however, is not overly happy with Stelmach and an election could bring some sparks and interest to what is usually a bland affair in Alberta politics.
Stay tuned!

Imagine if Stelmach's party lost. It's Harper's home province. Would that bode ill for Harper?
