		The 2nd Alberta Senate nominee election was held on October 19, 1998 in conjunction with the Alberta Municipal Elections.

		Of Alberta’s six seats in the 105-seat Canadian Senate, three are vacant and 10 Albertans — some representing political parties and some not — have put their names forward in hopes of being elected to fill one of those seats.
		Historically, Alberta has had some success with its senators-in-waiting: after the province’s first Senate nominee elections in 1989, the late Stan Waters was elected as Alberta’s first senator-in-waiting and later, became Canada’s first elected senator when former prime minister Brian Mulroney appointed him to the Senate in 1990.
		The cost of holding the Senate nominee election in conjunction with the provincial election is approximately $3 million, a cost which the province said is less than if the election was held on its own.

	Margret Kopala - Article, Ottawa Citizen, May 29, 2004
		For Quebec and Alberta, and for the Council of the Federation, this is a significant step with potential for restoring legitimacy and historical integrity to Canada’s Senate.
		First, transforming the Senate into The House of the Federation (1978) was based on recommendations made by the Pepin-Robarts Task Force on Canadian Unity who used the German Bundesrat model and recommended provincial governments appoint senators.
		Some academics argue that giving the Senate nearly equal powers to the House of Commons is incompatible with the principle of responsible government (government is responsible to the elected representatives of the people).

		For example, the Senate, President and Supreme Court could agree that four SC justices are going to resign en masse; that their replacements will be two conservative Republicans, one moderate Republican (picked by Olympia Snowe, for example) and one Democrat of the Democrats' choosing; and that there would be no filibuster of the confirmation vote.
		I would have the Republicans in the Senate call this issue before any other nomination, so that the offices of Secretary of State and (possibly) Secretary of Defense are sitting vacant while the Democrats filibuster the Supreme Court nominee and their continued vacancy can be blamed on the Democrats.
		It would be profoundly unconservative to appoint a recess nominee to the Supreme Court, and especially to appoint a non-Supreme Court, non-Appeals Court justice to the Chief Justice's position.

		After the failure of the Meech Lake and subsequent Charlottetown Accord s, the federal government continued its traditional practice of appointing senators without consulting the provinces.
		Despite the idea of senate reform being very popular in Western Canada, largely due to their disproptionately low represenation in the Senate of Canada, the Alberta senate elections are very controversial.
		The second and third largest parties in Alberta, the Alberta Liberal Party and the Alberta New Democrats do not support the elections and did not run candidates in the election, leaving it to be contested exclusively by the right-of-centre Alberta Progressive Conservatives, Alberta Alliance and Social Credit parties, and independents.
