So Alberta is having a Provincial election next Monday and I was just watching the anti-Ed Stelmach (AB current Premier for those of you who aren't keeping up with AB politics).
It's quite cute really, they just have a guy out on the street who is asking 'do you think Ed is doing a good job' or 'Do you trust Ed to get the job done', then you have the man/woman on the street saying stuff like 'No, no I don't.
It's so soft compared to U.S. political commercials - I like it
Wish Ralph was running again!
"I wasn't suprised that she crossed over to the Liberals. I don't think she ever did have a Conservative bone in her body. Well, maybe one".
Klein at a charity roast, talking about Tory turncoat Belinda Stronach -- who used to date Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay -- on Nov. 7, 2006.
"I ought not to have thrown the Liberal health policy at our page Jennifer, and to Jennifer, I apologize most sincerely. ... And I also apologize for referring to the document as crap, Mr. Speaker."
Klein apologizing in the Alberta legislature on March 1, 2006 after throwing a Liberal Party health policy booklet and narrowly missing a legislature page.
"You get a lot of free dinners but after that you get sort of tired, especially when you quit drinking, and then it's no fun at all, so I don't know why they would want to do it."
Klein talking to reporters at the Calgary Stampede on July 10, 2006 about his potential successors.
In the same scrum, he said: "I wake up in the morning and I say, 'Why am I here?' And it's because I'm not all there!"

Canadian politics are indeed kind of cute. I remember watching the House of Commons channel and found it quite ceremonial. Same thing with the Throne Speech (I had my own little joke about that
)By the way, Klein owes us money----- where's my 400 rebate?
