This book is dedicated to Preston Manning, founder and first leader of the Reform Party of Canada. Preston’s vision and leadership inspired me and thousands of other Western Canadians to work for new policies and constitutional reforms that would resolve our deeper structural vulnerability to predatory federal policies. Without a Preston Manning, there would have been no Stephen Harper; no Jason Kenney or Danielle Smith; no Pierre Poilievre— a past prime minister of Canada; a past premier of Alberta; the current premier of Alberta; and the current Leader of His Majesty’s Loyal Opposition (and hopefully soon, the next prime minister of Canada). Alberta wants in, not out. But we want a new deal, a fair deal, from the rest of Canada. A strong and prosperous Alberta makes for a strong and prosperous Canada. We want both.
