Hi, I'm only 13 but I have some strong feelings about this election. I feel that ever since Ed Stelmach won the leadership race, nothing has been done in Alberta. I feel that he has made no changes, and that we should not vote for a leader that cannot lead. I think that we should instead vote for a different party so that if we have to have a Progressive Conservative majority, we can at least have a strong opposition.

I do not understand how they get pass inspections, and allow a new place to be built this way and get away with it. We went to see the inspectors in Red Deer was unable to get a hold of anyone. left our phone number for him to contact us. My husband is a contractor it is a crime the way we have too pay and live in these conditions. I have shut my gas off at night just can't afford it. Contacted the mayor or Red, Deer found out he has nothing to do with how the building codes are.
The Mayor secretary told me this herself. She said anyone can build without a ticket.
Political observers in Alberta are calling it remarkable and opposition politicians are wondering what hit them after Ed Stelmach guided his Conservative party Monday to one of its biggest majorities ever.
As Premier Ed Stelmach and Alberta Conservatives savour their sweeping election victory, some people are raising a nagging concern: why so few people bothered to vote.
Voters in Alberta stuck with tried-and-true blue, giving the Progressive Conservative party an unprecedented 11th consecutive majority government in Monday's provincial election.
