Ten hilariously specific Alberta political predictions for the coming year
Happy New Year! AlbertaPolitics.ca's Top Ten political predictions for 2017 - Alberta Politics
PHOTOS: Your blogger, in hat, contemplates the difference between the renamed Conservative Party of Alberta and the renamed Conservative Party of Alberta. That's not a typo. See Prediction No. 9 below for an explanation. Actual Alberta political commentators may not appear exactly as illustrated in this screenshot.
I should be clear that I don't entirely know whether this post is meant to be funny--I can't always read David Climenhaga's dry humour--but I find the specificity of the predictions funny, anyway. It should be an interesting year if even half of them come true...




I'll endorse most of those predictions--except Trump's impeachment because the Republicans who dominate both houses are just as nutty as he is, with just as much understanding of the constitution.
I'm pretty sure Climenhaga is not saying Trump's impeachment would necessarily be a good thing--just that he sees it as inevitable. (Although not until 2019. See? So specific!)
