Alberta Liberal Leader Kevin Taft challenges PC Leader to open forum



Edmonton - Alberta Liberal Leader Kevin Taft is challenging Ed Stelmach to

an open debate.



"Ed Stelmach has been using some pretty strong language about my party,

calling us every name under the sun," Taft said. "The Alberta Liberals have

been talking about the issues that Albertans are most concerned about, like

health care, advanced education, financing our future prosperity,

infrastructure development, and the environment."



"I'd like Ed Stelmach to defend these claims in an open forum," said Taft.

"No briefing material, no spin doctors - just two hours taking questions

from the public. Media welcome."



Ed Stelmach is not participating in an all candidates forum in his own

constituency of Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville.



Alberta Liberal Leader Kevin Taft will be at an Edmonton-Riverview

candidates' forum tomorrow.



Taft said that Albertans are looking for real answers, real plans to secure

their economic future, and that Stelmach owes it to them to be straight.



"So, let's take it to the people. That's what a democratic election is all

about. I'm challenging Ed to come out from his bubble and be a real leader,"

Taft said.



"It's time for a change," said Taft. "Let's get the job done right."
