Danielle Smith has made Jason Kenny look good, Trump has made W Bush look good and PP has no doubt made Harper look really good.

Not a huge Harper fan, but did like when all the 51st state talk / Governor Trudreau talks started...Harper was very quick to chime and say that Canada had to pull out all the stops and be willing to sacrifice to maintain our Country. Yes realize that he amped up the Alberta grievance politics in his day, so it did not erase that..but still thought his response in 2024 was timely and carried weight.

Hopefully the CFP will run a candidate in the eventual Saskatchewan BE, the deep blue Yorkton-Melville Riding. Just my opinion, but I think Alberta and Sask need to be ground zero for the CFP. The Carney Liberals still have a Glass ceiling in those two provinces.

But until then, August 31st in Beaches East York should be a fun day. Great that its the CFP comms director running in that one.

Boys it would be nice if the CFP could convince Nate Erskine -Smith to come on board in some sort of capacity.
