Turner supporters would certainly want that to be the truth, but I think he has climaxed too early for the Nenshi parallel.
The biggest issue Turner has is that at a national level, and this is a Federal election, the greens have too many foundational challenges in Alberta. As a result, the upside from 25% is minimal. I can only imagine a true centrist being a legitimate contender. We'll have to see.
