EDMONTON, Alberta – While the people of Alberta eagerly await this spring’s election call, all of the political parties in the province have launched unofficial press releases and are holding news conferences about plans for Alberta’s future. The incumbent NDP, led by Rachael Notorious BIC Notley, has given 2P News a sneak preview of its top ten 2019 campaign election promises. And let us be the first to say, these might be their best ideas to date.
