Smith’s leadership isn’t at risk — not this year, anyway. Control of the party apparatus is what’s at stake, with serious potential for another upheaval.
Take Back Alberta, generally speaking, thinks the party grassroots should run the government. They see the party executive as a watchdog and power centre on its own.
This is entirely at odds with the traditional view that the party board is there to back and help the government.
Many positions on the 17-member executive are up for grabs this time. President Cynthia Moore won’t run again, and only one “traditional” member is said to be running.
The board could be filled by Take Back Alberta candidates with few exceptions.

Seems like Australia is finally waking up!
One Nation sure sounds a lot like Canada’s PPC. Wouldn’t it be great if Canadians could wake the hell up and figure out that they could vote for a party that actually shares their values like Aussies seem to be doing.
Not sure where this came from but love it!! 😂😂😂😂😂
'If You Are Not a Liberal When You Are Young, You Have No Heart, and If You Are Not a Conservative When Old, You Have No Brain'
That’s Maxime Bernier’s message on his Alberta tour. He’s calling for radical decentralization: getting Ottawa out of provincial affairs and putting decisions back in the hands of the provinces — and closer to the people who live with the consequences.
MAX’S MESSAGE: OTTAWA, GET OUT OF PROVINCIAL AFFAIRS.
Tonight, Max makes his case live from Calgary, joined by Isaias Nolasco of New Generation PPC, Nadine Wellwood Autor of Alberta Rising, and Madison and MayCee Holmes, co-hosts of At Home with Holmes.
