History Less than four years had passed since the Progressive Conservatives won their landslide victory in 1979. Premier Peter Lougheed decided to call a snap election to catch fledgling new parties off guard, most notably the separatist Western Canada Concept which was capitalizing on anger over Lougheed's perceived weakness in dealings with the federal government, in particular his acceptance of the hugely unpopular National Energy Program. The WCC's Gordon Kesler had won a by-election earlier in the year, and Lougheed decided that it would be wise to stage a showdown with the WCC sooner rather than later.May 2025 Lougheed then proceeded to mount a campaign based largely on scare tactics, warning Albertans angry with Ottawa but yet uneasy with the WCC that they could end up with a separatist government by voting for a separatist party. Lougheed would also promise to sell the government owned airline Pacific Western Airlines, which the Lougheed government had purchased in 1974.Steward Gillian Alberta gives up an airline https://archive.macleans.ca/article/1983/12/19/alberta-gives-up-an-airline 2 July 2020 Maclean's December 19, 1983 Calgary July 2, 2020 https://web.archive.org/web/20200702191635/https://archive.macleans.ca/article/1983/12/19/alberta-gives-up-an-airline dead The strategy worked for the Tories, who won their fourth consecutive term in government, and returned to the 62% popular vote level it had attained in the 1975 election. This netted the Tories 75 seats in the legislature—in terms of percentage of seats won, the second-largest majority government in the province's history. In the process, they reduced the opposition to only four MLAs in total.May 2025 The Alberta Liberal Party was punished in the wake of the NEP. Barely able to field candidates in a third of the ridings, it went down to one of its worst showings in party history.May 2025 The Social Credit Party bottomed out after spending a decade in the wilderness after losing power in 1971. In a harbinger of things to come, Socred leader Robert Curtis Clark returned to the backbench shortly after the 1979 election, and retired from politics in 1981. Clark's old seat of Olds-Didsbury was resoundingly lost to the WCC in the ensuing by-election, dropping the Socreds to only three seats, one short of official party status. In March 1982, Socred parliamentary leader Raymond Speaker announced the Socreds would sit out the election. A resolution was put forward to disband the party, but failed. After the writs were issued for the 1982 election, two of the remaining three Socred MLAs, Speaker and Walt Buck, resigned from the party to run for reelection as independents. The third, Fred Mandeville, opted not to run for reelection. With no incumbents for the first time since 1935 and no full-time leader, Social Credit was only able to run 23 candidates, easily its smallest slate at the time. The party's share of the popular vote fell from almost 20% to less than one per cent. It was shut out of the legislature for the first time since 1935, never to return. Speaker and Buck, however, did win reelection, and later formed the Representative Party of Alberta after being denied opposition status.May 2025 The New Democratic Party, led by Grant Notley, became the official opposition when Ray Martin was elected to the legislature. Notley had been the sole NDP MLA for more than a decade.May 2025 The WCC, a party that advocated the separation of the four western provinces of Canada to form a new country, had surprised Canadians when Kesler won his by-election and took a seat in the Alberta legislature. Although Kesler lost his seat in this election after he changed electoral districts from Olds-Didsbury and ran in Highwood, the WCC won almost 12% of the popular vote.May 2025 The Alberta Reform Movement, a new party founded by ex-Progressive Conservative Tom Sindlinger was caught unaware when the election was called, and ended up losing its only seat in Calgary Buffalo.May 2025 Opinion polls + Evolution of voting intentions at provincial level Polling firmLast day of survey Source PCA ANDP WCC ALP ASC Other Undecided ME Margin of Error SampleElection 1982November 2, 198262.2818.7511.761.810.83Alberta ReportSeptember 26, 1982Accuracy of Alberta Report poll questioned September 29, 1982 The Star Phoenix B167115752Alberta ReportSeptember 26, 1982Lougheed Support Down In Alberta Poll March 4, 1982 The Leader-Post 125217207331Election 1979March 14, 197957.4015.75—6.1619.87 Results Overall voter turnout was 66.00%.2008 General Report http://www.elections.ab.ca/Public%20Website/files/Reports/Part8.pdf Election Alberta April 29, 2011 158 July 28, 2008 February 24, 2012 https://web.archive.org/web/20120224135356/http://www.elections.ab.ca/Public%20Website/files/Reports/Part8.pdf dead centre|300px PartyParty leader# ofcandidatesSeatsPopular vote1979Diss.Elected% Change#%% Change AB PC row-name Peter Lougheed 79 74 73 75 +1.4% 588,485 62.28% +4.88% AB NDP row-name Grant Notley 79 1 1 2 +100% 177,166 18.75% +3.00% AB Independent rowIndependent 34 - 2 2 - 36,590 3.87% +3.10% AB Western Canada Concept row-name Gordon Kesler 78 * 1 - * 111,131 11.76% * AB Liberal row-name Nicholas Taylor 29 - - - - 17,074 1.81% -4.35% AB Social Credit row-name George Richardson23 4 1 - -100% 7,843 0.83% -19.04% AB Alberta Reform Movement row-name Tom Sindlinger 14 * 1 - -100% 6,258 0.66% * AB Communist row-name 8 - - - - 389 0.04% -0.01%Total344797979 -944,936 100%  Source: Elections Alberta Note: * Party did not nominate candidates in the previous election.Popular vote #ddd 600px 410px PC AB PC 62.28 New Democratic AB NDP 18.75 WCC AB Western Canada Concept 11.76 Liberal AB Liberal 1.81 Social Credit AB Social Credit 0.83 Others CA Inde 4.57Seats summary #ddd 600px 410px PC AB PC 94.94 New Democratic AB NDP 2.53 Independent CA Inde 2.53 Results by riding AB PC NDP Western Canada Concept Liberal Other |- |Athabasca||AB PC background| |Frank Appleby5,34256.96% | |Ed Caraher1,95220.81% | |Con Sehn1,53816.40% | | | |Adam Hauch (SoCred)5295.64%||AB PC background| |Frank Appleby |- |Banff-Cochrane||AB PC background| |Greg Stevens8,36972.06% | |David Evans1,28811.09% | |Larry Peterson1,91916.52% | | | |||AB PC background| |Greg Stevens |- |Barrhead||AB PC background| |Kenneth R.
