«Today I talk to Bruce Pardy about the referendum. I have come to trust and admire Bruce for his out of the box thinking on things. Being from Ontario he has a unique, but well informed grasp on Alberta and the independence movement.
I have been rather silent over the last couple of days since the referendum. I am not the type to go off on a tear about anything, I prefer to analyze the situation and then act accordingly. I have to say I have plenty of questions about what to do next, and that's what I talk about with Bruce.
I don't think you're going to like the conclusion he comes to... and I have to agree with.
We talk about:
- Premier Danielle Smith and what to do with her
- Plans to get control of the United Conservative Party
- Starting a new independence party
- Risking an NDP government
- Was it worth it?
What do we do next?
I do think we need some time and eventually some unity to plan the path forward.
I think you'll enjoy this in depth discussion. Thanks to Bruce for his time.»
