Yeah I live in Calgary and as bad as it can be I've never heard about "western separation" except as the punchline of a joke

it gets brought up from time to time by diehards as a genuine thing, but it's such an obviously toothless concept that it never lasts long in the mainstream

No, there are definitely a lot of (dumb) people who unironically believe in it and who constantly post facebook memes about being exploited for transfer payments to have-not provinces.

At least the PPC got thoroughly owned so that is a victory in itself.

I wouldn't count out any right-wing party these days. While their growth would dent the Cons base, we're one serious economic collapse away from them grasping power I predict.

since ur pm is just lovely Obama this is your version of 2012, a seemingly comfortable victory that gets used to paper over a bunch of massive warning signs from the province/local level then you get pm Rob Ford, aka lovely trump

or maybe you get lib ndp coalition that drags your gov left enough that the prophecy gets broken idk

Maybe 1/3 of the population is taking that hint. Another third likes it and wants more, and the only thing keeping us from going full thunderdome is the remaining 'absence of violence' negative peace third siding with the status quo, which for today at least, is not the fash.

Next election more than likely will flip Lib Majority. All Trudeau has to do is use the NDP as king makers and blame them for Bad Things. Goes 1 of 2 ways:

Government Run Good: Give us a majority, we will make government run more good. Opposition full of poo poo, behold stats. Ignore wailing NDP.

Government Run Bad: Can you believe the NDP forced all these Bad Things in legislation that made government run bad? We will fix the broken system. Ignore wailing PC/NDP.


It's a fairly easy campaign to run and win either way, and there's no way in hell electoral reform is getting done to jeopardize any of that lol.

I voted NDP but I gotta say their campaign was anemic until the second debate, it seems they spent a lot more time just trying to have Singh just be accepted as a candidate nationwide, and their ground game in Quebec completely sucked. So Quebecers rallied around their usual protest vote party, the Bloc.

a lot of people already complaining that the liberals needing NDP and bloc votes to ensure a pipline means that trans mountain is dead. 2 flaws

1) the pipeline is approved already and does require anymore HOC action

2) the conservatives can vote yes along side the libs
