Has Rachel Notley Already Lost the Election?

Premier Smith hasn't even called the election yet...but at least a couple political commentators believe it may already be too late for Rachel Notley's NDP to win. Max Fawcett and Evan Scrimshaw explain what they think Notley needs to do to win in May.

But first...a whole bunch of you had a lot to say about our episode with Brett Kissel. Ryan recaps what happened in studio and after the interview (0:00), and reads a couple powerful emails from Real Talkers Gillian and Catherine.

14:13 | "The NDP has at best 3.5 months to get their heads out of their asses and get into the game. Every minute they waste is a minute that makes Danielle Smith more likely to win a full term." That's political writer Evan Scrimshaw, who (agree or disagree with him) makes a compelling case in his Real Talk debut.
