Jen GersonHOST
But I look at this going like, "Okay, but I have to...
Jen GersonHOST
Firstly, I have to do the s- give Mark Carney the same initial benefit of the doubt that I gave Daniel Smith, that I gave Jim Prentice, that I gave Rachel Notley, that I, that I try to give all leaders." Like, I don't...
Jen GersonHOST
I start from assumption of like, "All right.
Jen GersonHOST
These people are operating in good faith.
Ryan JespersenHOST
It wasn't there for a long time, but Dave Hancock would be another example.
Ryan JespersenHOST
You've had premiers that people would look at, probably even Jim Prentice, that were seen as pragmatic and middle of the road.
Ryan JespersenHOST
And, you know, do you compare like a, A Dave Hancock and a Danielle Smith.
Ryan JespersenHOST
Right.
Michael GardinerGUEST
He didn't win that election, but he realigned politics in BC forever.
Michael GardinerGUEST
Or if you look at the 2015 campaign in Alberta, when Jim Prentice said to Rachel Notley, a skilled lawyer and a very talented person, I know math is hard.
Michael GardinerGUEST
Even conservative Albertans saw that moment as patronizing and sexist.
Michael GardinerGUEST
And it really catapulted Notley's run to power from a very, very small minority of seats.
Eric GrenierHOST
Was defeated.
Eric GrenierHOST
And probably the most spectacular one in recent memory is Jim Prentice, the late Jim Prentice-
Philippe J. FournierHOST
That's right
Eric GrenierHOST
...
Philippe J. FournierHOST
I mean, we'll see the result, uh, next, next Saturday.
Philippe J. FournierHOST
But very interesting question.
Eric GrenierHOST
Though there is some similarities, I think, with the Jim Prentice one, though.
Eric GrenierHOST
Because that was, that one backfired in part because of the cynicism of it, right? He had gotten rid of-
Zain VeljiGUEST
Brian Jean would have been just fine to many people.
Zain VeljiGUEST
The electoral math was going in their direction as long as Jim Prentice did not look over to Rachel Notley and target her as the opponent in 2015.
Zain VeljiGUEST
So could the Wild Rose have won? Sure.
Zain VeljiGUEST
Just like the UCP have won.
25 MINS LATER
Stephen CarterGUEST
They've been pointed out and said, they're the problem, not us.
Stephen CarterGUEST
We're the problem.
Stephen CarterGUEST
This is a Jim Prentice moment where we all need to step back, look in the mirror and see what we've created by electing a Danielle Smith led government.
Zain VeljiGUEST
The B side to those immigration questions, two points here.
James MoorePANELIST
No. J- le- you can, you can count, I think, on one hand, the number of them who are actually members of Stephen Harper's caucus.
James MoorePANELIST
The Conservative caucus of Stephen Harper is found in people like Jason Kenney and Rona Ambrose, the late Jim Prentice, uh, James Rajotte, others who have been aggressive, forceful voices on the other side.
James MoorePANELIST
Uh, uh, you know, Ted Menzies.
James MoorePANELIST
I can, I can go on and on.
Jeremy AppelGUEST
And then Smith and the majority of her caucus cross the floor to the government.
Jeremy AppelGUEST
Smith and Anderson were promised a cabinet position from the premier at the time, Jim Prentice, who won the leadership race after Redford resigned because of, uh, scandals regarding the use of the government's private jet.
Jeremy AppelGUEST
Smith and Anderson, though, don't get that in writing.
Jeremy AppelGUEST
And when Prentice comes to his caucus and says, "Hey, you know these people that were, like, attacking you viciously and personally for the past two-plus years? Well, we're actually gonna bring them into government and work together with them." And people were not having it.
Derek FildebrandtHOST
It should be the lie should be plausible.
Derek FildebrandtHOST
And this reeks of the 2015 early election call of Jim Prentice, which was a full year early for him.
Derek FildebrandtHOST
And people reacted furiously.
Derek FildebrandtHOST
That was one year early.
Eric SorensenCORRESPONDENT
Dwayne Bratt says David Eby's call in 2026 reminds him of Alberta in 2015.
Eric SorensenCORRESPONDENT
Back then, Premier Jim Prentice brought Danielle Smith and other Wildrose MLAs to the Conservatives.
Eric SorensenCORRESPONDENT
And then...
Jim PrenticeSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Albertans have the opportunity to make a choice.
Cory MorganHOST
Yeah, well, Dave, you may remember, I look at a bit of a parallel.
Cory MorganHOST
I mean, in how a premier can invoke cynicism among the electorate when they take an opportunistic stance with the late Jim Prentice.
Cory MorganHOST
He had orchestrated that disastrous floor crossing that turned out to be with Premier Smith.
Cory MorganHOST
I was actually a campaign manager in the remnants of the Wildrose party and how battered and bruised we were at that time, but we still came forward and ran.
