Listen "Running on their records"
Episode Synopsis
The four week election campaign gets underway with the UCP promising big tax cuts and the NDP offering a leader Albertans can trust. The bottom line is this election is about two women who know what it’s like to be in the top political job, running on their records. This week, West of Centre host Kathleen Petty takes you behind the scenes of the campaigns with senior advisors in both camps. Cheryl Oates is with the NDP and Erika Barootes is with the UCP. And acting as a bit of a buffer between the two is Jason Markusoff , a producer and writer with CBC Calgary who somehow found a way to tie Cinco de Mayo into Alberta politics. .
