In an interview with CBC News on Monday, Nenshi said he was entering the race based on his concerns that the governing United Conservative Party is "not only incompetent, but they're actually immoral and they're dangerous."
He said too many Albertans can't find doctors, classrooms are overcrowded, and suggested the UCP can only "pick fights and waste money."
"They punch down on the vulnerable and they've left us completely unprepared for a world that is changing," he told the CBC's Scott Dippel in an interview.

I hope he wins the leadership. I think, under the current circumstances, he would be a formidable opponent to the Cons.
