Why...Uh, or Brett would need to leave the show.... Why is everyone so excited about this? What does this guy know about anything? What does anybody really know about him? Who's behind him? If he's allowed (?) this idea to trickle out, presumably he has some backers? Or are they too scared to go public? I can't see it happening. <br /><br />No doubt he's looking to serve the interests of Calgary 's oilpatch better from the premier's chair than he was able to at First Energy.

The PC party, despite it's electoral stranglehold, has a duty to front a refreshingly visionary leader.
