Politicians need a story people can relate to, Stephen Carter suggests, but neither Notley nor Smith are resonating with most Albertans
Stephen’s quite happy to interpret the political stage in Alberta, and begins with Smith. “If she played the right character, she could be anything,” he declares. “So when I put her in play, I pitched to her the pragmatic conservative. I still believe quite strongly in the pragmatic conservative. Arguably Doug Ford is a pragmatic conservative.
Stephen’s advice to the premier? She should go back to her experience as a talk show host. If Smith listened to all her callers, and then summed them up in a rational statement, everyone feels like they’re included.
Alberta’s political stage is wobbly, reports Stephen, because the character of Notley does not resonate with more than 45 per cent of the population and the character of Smith resonates with 30 per cent of Albertans, while the conservative brand resonates with 65 per cent of the people. What about trust? I’ve heard experts frame the ballot question as: “Who do I trust to run Alberta?” Stephen’s response makes me grimace: “It doesn’t strike me that trust actually matters that much. A lack of trust is already factored into politics.”
