It is quite apparent it did not take Albertans long to realize the provincial election was a big mistake. Blue streak.
Albertans will never forgive the Liberals for the NEP. Trudeau would have been wise to apologize for his father.0 -

Things seem to be going pretty good for him right now.
Who cares if he doesn't have Alberta's support?

I wanted a minority. But nope.DarthMaeglin said:It's strange, a majority is arguably a more efficient government, but I feel a minority is more representative of a "true" democracy (because of the need for compromise).
It'll really be interesting to see which way the West goes, since Alberta just went NDP, where they've generally gone Conservative.0 -
A 43yr old guy running the country now.
A campaign promise was to legalize pot and tell of putin.
Good times ahead.0 -

Turdo is about to establish one in all the wrong places.
Combating Putin? Allowing everyone to legally smoke pot?

Legalizing marijuana has broad support from the population, not just in Canada. The Liberal platform does not allow "everyone" to legally smoke pot, but it does allow adults to legally smoke pot. Still illegal for kids, as it is now, and that has been ever so effective, hasn't it?my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0

Well, I mean "efficient" in relative terms, lol... Isn't everything relative to a a very low bar in politics? I just assume it!DarthMaeglin said:
CTV's declared a Liberal majority, so I guess they'll be "efficient," lol. At least I got good-looking X-Files and Star Wars trailers today, lol.PJ_Soul said:
If the NDP had enough seats a minority might not be too bad, but if the Cons had enugh seats that would kind of give us the same kind of shit that the US gets when they have a Dem Senate and a Rep Congress, or vice versa. Just a lot of nothing bullshit. If the NDP got enough seats it could be a lot smoother since they and the libs aren't at such odds.DarthMaeglin said:It's strange, a majority is arguably a more efficient government, but I feel a minority is more representative of a "true" democracy (because of the need for compromise).

Glad it looks to be a majority, but still sad thst the NDP seem to be doing so badly.With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata0 -

So, umm, the Greens are leading in one riding. Wonder which one?my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0

Yay! They need to be in there. Always root for them in the couple of ridings where it's a possibility..... That thing with the Victoria liberal was kinda weird, eh?oftenreading said:So, umm, the Greens are leading in one riding. Wonder which one?

And as an aside, our riding actually had a Libertarian candidate running. She is 19, and was out of the country on vacation throughout much of the run up to the election
. So far it appears she is at 0.0% of the votes.
