The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge · Reporter's Notebook -- Kathleen Petty and The Real Alberta Story · 20 May 2026 podcast

They maybe yes, maybe no.

They're not really sure.

So they're persuadable.

They're kind of on the fence.

Whereas Pierre Polyev won, he and the conservatives won 64% of the vote in Alberta in the last election.

So he actually, and he represents a rural riding.

He's an Alberta MP on top of that.

And so the question, and even Jason Kenney suggested that,

more recently, he wasn't before, but he is now, that he thinks Pierre Polyev needs to get in the mix.

I suspect part of the hesitation is they want to be sure there's actually going to be a question that Albertans are going to be voting, because do you really want to dive into this before it's real?

And if...

it becomes real as a lot of people expect at some point later this week that that is the intention that may change his calculation uh it would seem to me that it would be good for him politically just my observation because he wants to grow he needs to grow outside of alberta uh you know he he can lose uh some support in alberta and still do just fine

in the next election, but he needs to grow outside of Alberta.

And so the ability to essentially be Captain Canada, or at least one of them in this debate, I think would probably serve him well politically.

But one of the tricky parts for him, I believe, is that he's not a fan of this MOU.

So he has not been a proponent of this MOU.

He doesn't think it's a good deal.

And so he's sort of, even though he and Daniel Smith are allies of a sort, she obviously thinks it is a good deal.

She thinks this is an example that she is pursuing a deal with the federal government that shows that federalism, that Canada does work.

And yet he's saying that this is not a good deal.
