Courtesy of Tom Olsen, here are the number of days missed during last spring's 43 day legislative session by Alberta MLAs. So who were the worst truants?
Ken Nicol, Lib 23 (announced retirement in January to run federally)
Marlene Graham, PC 16 (retired)
Hung Pham, PC 15
Moe Amery, PC 11
Ralph Klein, PC 11
Gary Masyk, PC 10 (defeated)
Lyle Oberg, PC 10
Judy Gordon, PC 10 (retired)
It should be noted that both NDP MLAs get a certificate for perfect attendance. Obviously, attendance isn't everything but it further shows what a joke it was that Hung Pham and Moe Amery were re-elected in Calgary this November. They are two of the absolute worst MLAs in the province and these numbers only reinforce that perception.

I think the issue is that Conservative supporters, especially here in Alberta, vote the way they do not because of any confidence in their representatives but because they view the PCs and the federal Conservatives as being "western parties". It also strikes me that many who support the PCs do so because they don't want to be "socialists". Both ridiculous reasons....

Hey, I thought it was against the law to slander the Natural governing party in Alberta. I mean pretty much every government Alberta has had was in some way a manifestation of conservative politics.
Loved your abortion comments as well. Made me laugh!
