The Presentation
Paul McLoughlin and Janet Brown deliver a dynamic, in-person presentation examining Alberta’s evolving political scene. Wild Ride uses current polling data to explain today’s political environment and to develop possible future scenarios. It also includes the “story behind the numbers,” providing context for how and why the current political environment exists and how it could affect your organization.
Janet and Paul discuss:
-
Who’s who in government,
-
What policy changes you can expect and when,
-
Current political party support,
-
Party leader approval,
-
Economic confidence, and
-
The likelihood and consequences of several political scenarios.
