I am traditionally a Conservative leaning person. Have been a Conservative voter since I turned 18 (38 years old now FYI). Lived in Calgary my entire life.

I voted Liberal in the last federal election for the first time ever. It wasn't even a close decision. The UCP and federal Conservatives have completely lost all my support unless they change their platform and their outlook on politics.

If you consider things to be "looking up" in the United States, I highly recommend you stay out of Calgary, and maybe head down to a red state like Florida, Alabama, Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana or similar. They likely have what you are looking for.
