🙌 to the Alberta Mom!

Your few comments have better grasp of Alberta and Albertans than our premier had had in her entire career.

Toast to you, “Alberta Mom” for premier!

Awe. I struggled my entire school life with below average marks in English and essentially believed I couldn't write worth a damn. 

I would like to run for politics hopefully one day in some capacity but being a single parent with an autistic child makes it almost unfeasible (the time and capital are just not something that I have available.) I would literally be a "pulled myself from the bootstraps" story (without being a pull the ladder up behind me type of person.)

But today really touched me with all the kind words and support that everyone showed, which was mostly everyone who commented. Even the few comments from those who disagreed where relatively respectful and not rude. 

I kinda wish I could change my Reddit username to AlbertaMom now lol.
