Alberta is more with it than you might think: Kenny is seen by most as a strange duck. None of the women I know find his views attractive, that's for sure. There is something just not right about Kenny, and his tactics are those of a palace eunuch. 

As for the prospects of a united right, that will depend entirely on economic factors, and that means what is around the corner is entirely unpredictable.

By 2019, carbon tax will be old news. Actually expressing support for coal plants, which Kenny has done, will go over like a bad case of BO. The 2019 election will be about the economy.
