Will Jason Kenney's career survive in Alberta?

Show notes
He returned to the province as a conservative saviour, uniting the right under one banner and vanquishing the NDP. But just a few short years later, Jason Kenney's own party—or at least a substantial chunk of it—wants him gone. A leadership review attracted so many interested voters that it was moved from an in-person event to a mail-in ballot, which has only furthered the cries of skullduggery from his opponents within the UCP. It also probably didn't help that Kenney was taped referring to them as "kooks" and "lunatics" in a leaked audio clip.
What happened to Kenney's conservative support in Alberta? And what happens next if his party ousts him?
GUEST: Jason Markusoff, Alberta-based staff writer, Maclean's
