Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter go deep on the start of the still-unofficial Alberta NDP leadership race - the landscape, the rules, the perceived frontrunners - and what they need to do and the opportunities available to each of them. Did a column by CBC's Jason Markusoff putting all the open secrets out in public signal its launch? How should Sarah Hoffman, Kathleen Ganley, and Rakhi Pancholi position themselves in the race? And is there space for anybody else, or is all of Alberta too busy voting before 8pm MT on Sunday, December 17 at TellDave.ca? Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.
