Who were the two progressive conservative politicians who survived the 1993 general election?

I'm referring to the Canadian 1993 election where the progressive Conservative party lost all but 2 seats. Wikipedia apparently doens't say who, but I'm really curious who those two were.

🚨︎ report
In 1988's federal election, Alberta elected 25 PC MPs and 1 NDP MP. In 1993, they elected 22 Reform MPs and 4 Liberal MPs.

In other words, in 1993, they did not re-elect a party in a single riding. Rather surprising for a province that supposedly always votes the same (though of course, when people say this, what they really mean is it always votes right-leaning, even if Reform was a totally different beast from the old PCs). Nova Scotia in 1997 is the only other instance of this feat that I am aware of. P.E.I. only has 4 seats so it might have done it before.

Despite that, two incumbents were re-elected. David Kilgour crossed the floor from the PCs to the Liberals and was re-elected. Deborah Grey won Beaver River in an 1988 by-election and was also re-elected.

1988 1993

Discussion Thread - 2021 Alberta Municipal Elections and Referenda

Welcome to the 2021 Alberta municipal elections and referenda!

Voters across Alberta municipalities will go to the polls today to elect local Mayors, Councillors, and School Trustees. Voters will also participate in local plebiscites and two province-wide referenda on the Equalization formula and Daylight Savings Time. Finally, voters will also nominate Senators-in-Waiting.

Note that some province-wide results may not come until later.

As with other live discussion threads in our subreddit, Rule 3 is generally relaxed; however, make sure that your comments and reactions are substantive and respectful.

This is happening at the same time as our municipal election. You'll vote at the same time and place for both.

You can check out a full list of candidates here

Remember, just like the equalization payments plebiscite, the AB government doesn't care what you think unless you vote like how they were going to act anyway. These provincial ballots are non-binding.
