Having cried in their beer for over four decades, Dippers would be in a position to know. And, it won't be long before they wreck Alberta (built by conservatism) enough for voters to send them back to crying in their beer once again. For now, enjoy your schadenfreude.<br />JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884491329536733335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-17059331810106520182015-05-07T10:40:04.543-07:002015-05-07T10:40:04.543-07:00Conservative tears are the most delicious kind...Conservative tears are the most delicious kind...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-8867334759342200092015-05-06T16:54:51.672-07:002015-05-06T16:54:51.672-07:00Alberta's changing demographics are making it ...<i>Alberta's changing demographics are making it less friendly to party's on the right."</i><br /><br />Probably true. The population is no doubt steadily becoming more urbanized with increases in population coming largely from outside the province.<br /><br />JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884491329536733335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-79983791883490929472015-05-06T14:52:58.267-07:002015-05-06T14:52:58.267-07:00While disappointed with the results, this was more...While disappointed with the results, this was more a throw the bums election out than vote one in. Nonetheless Alberta's changing demographics are making it less friendly to party's on the right. I still expect the Tories will win the lion's share of seats federally but they could face some difficulties in some urban ridings. In fact I think the Conservative vote unlike say in other provinces was inflated there as other parties didn't bother to try and hard to win if you don't try. That being said it seems next election will be less on region and more ideology so its not totally surprising Tories are up in Quebec, which is their weakest province, but down by the most in Alberta as the gap between different provinces is not as big as some think and with social media and more inter-provincial migration its probably less than it was a decade ago.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-10061653062106769972015-05-06T08:34:47.756-07:002015-05-06T08:34:47.756-07:00Red Rover, Red Rover Alberta bend over.Red Rover, Red Rover Alberta bend over.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-40802194658790592352015-05-06T04:44:07.844-07:002015-05-06T04:44:07.844-07:00Here comes a 10% HST.
