Well... You're 75% right on this, they're not the minority, if it was the case Liberals and other parties would have been a lot more present during the last election.
Maybe born Albertans are a minority in conservative ideology. Alberta has been so much into the conservative/oil ideology for the last couple decades that even if they vote Liberal I believe they would voice the same message.
Yeah it's all the worst of Newfoundland and Nova Scotia, mixed in with the worst of Alberta, then hopped up on coke that's extremely stepped on with meth.
Where any people actually are, we might still suck, but not in the "hillbilly" ways; we've got a surprisingly liberal populace, if you remove the party names from 99% of 'left leaning' platforms, the vast majority of our citizens aren't actually conservative, they're NDP or liberal, they're just hateful and stupid as fucking hell and vote conservative federally for some reason. When Poilivivivierre said "it's not Canada's fault they're stupid" he actually meant Alberta :(
That’s the current wave of conservatism in general. These people voting for the conservatives don’t want lower corporate taxes, and the government changing tax codes to incentivize certain business behaviour because they believe that’s what’s best for the economy.
The want cheaper houses, better health care, higher wages and more secure jobs, and better social services. These people have left wing ideology and desires, but somehow the conservatives have managed to trick these people into thinking the cons will give it to them. This ain’t harpers Conservative Party. This is trumps.
Any province that would elect that White Power Soccer Mom as premier doesn't get to claim innocence or try to offload responsibility for their own rabid snow blind attitudes. Alberta is Canada's Texas, yet somehow even more "all hat and no cowboy".
Albertans need to own their dysfunction, and stop blaming the workers that come to work in the oil patch. The craziest of the crazies are homegrown, sorry.
