"Its such an exciting time in politics in Alberta.  We have former Prime Minister Stephen Harper out door knocking for the UCP in the province. Everyone wants to be part of this momentum in conservative politics."

Pitt says she isn't sure where the ex-PM will be but she says she expects him to put in the same amount of work as other constituents.

"I assume he is going to be actually like every other constituent pulling hard for their conservative candidate."  

Pitt says its like there is one big, giant conservative family now.
