And here I was thinking that the PCs had implemented a strategic communications plan to begin recovering their support after the Calgary-Glenmore by-election defeat.
Tory MLA apologizes to Stelmach
Calgary North Hill MLA Kyle Fawcett has apologized to Premier Ed Stelmach for being critical of his leadership abilities.
Fawcett suggested Stelmach had done little to give confidence to Calgarians that he has the ability to lead the province.
The rookie Conservative MLA made the comment after the party finished third in a byelection in Calgary on Monday.
Stelmach and Fawcett met for a conversation on Thursday and Fawcett offered an apology for his comment, the premier said.
“He was remorseful, and he said, look, you know, I just got caught in the heat of the loss and certainly dejected, and I know what it feels like,” said Stelmach.
I guess I gave them too much credit.
