Whais happening behind the scene for the faux Tories

Breaking up the old 2011 Tory gang: Tim Harper

Rob Merrifield joined a growing parade last week.
 
He’s the latest to bid so long to that old gang, the Conservative class of 2011.
 
In accepting the post as Washington envoy for Alberta Premier Jim Prentice, Merrifield became just the latest Conservative MP to turn his or her back on Ottawa and to choose something else over the power of incumbency in 2015.
 
Twenty of them have decided they’ve had enough and will not run again next year.
 
Add in previous resignations, lost nomination bids and a death, and more than 30 Conservatives elected in Harper’s historic 2011 majority— 166 MPs — are leaving or have left.
 
Those numbers include nine from the Conservative-safe bastion of Alberta.
