    Yeah its part of the whole western alienation, the fact that elections are sometimes decided before west coast polls are closed.


    Then they should get more people. I can't help it that Ontario has 14.2million people while Sask has 1million, and Alberta 4...Toronto almost has as many people as Alberta.


    Wanna know what really grinds my walnuts about places like Alberta? They bitch and moan about not being represented in the East /Federally...but the KEEP strictly voting in Conservative MPs and Provincial govt (be they PCs or the UCP combo). They are a captured electorate. The Conservative politicians KNOW this. They know that no mater what happens Albertans will, by and large, continuously vote them into power. So why would they WORK for those votes? Like compare with the East Coast provinces. They shift between the parties depending on policy and who they think will help them, so all the parties (Federally and Provincially) have to work for their votes and nothing is ever stagnant there....Alberta? Sask? 9 times out of 10 will vote in Cons who then don't help them, don't spend money on things that will help them, and they just rant and Roar about the Feds being the problem...AB is not well represented in Ottawa because the VAST majority of Canada is not some deeply Socially conservative nation...we are centre (right) on the best of days. So how Danielle Smith, Wild Rose Party amalgam got in is proof that Albertans don't know what the fuck they are doing or voting for. And then the one time in the last like 50 yrs that another party DID get in? The Cons (who have left Alberta in dire straights for decades on pretty much all public fronts) screeched about how the NDP were no good and destroyed the province...no they were actually trying to fix it and realign it towards Canadian goals, but it was going to take more than 4 years to do so....so impatient Albertans voted in Kenney and returned to their cycle of voting against their interests again, but under the veneer of conservatism which actually destroys their province but makes them feel comfortable so they don't pay attention or care.



    Theres something to be said for the fact that if the election is decided before you polls are even closed it does a lot to disenfranchise people. But you know, you keep at it, im sure that dismissive attitude and solution is sure to help that problem. You also conveniently left out BC, last I check BC was in the west and BC is one of the largest provinces with considerable economic pull.

    i mean thats the interesting thing. The numbers the CPC have now have historically won them elections. However the Cratering of the NPD and Bloc have resulted in the liberals having a ridiculous amount of support.

    It's ultimately going to come down to "voter efficiency" on the day. That being said unless something on the international stage happens to change it up, I think the numbers aren't going to change much. If anything internally was going to change anything it would have been a blowout at the debates which didn't really happen.

    I think it's telling that one of my buddies whom I was getting food with was telling me even though he usually votes NDP hes actually voting liberal for once in his life cause Jagmeet can't really unify people. I think his career is done and the NDP are going to have to rebuild.


    Singh and Pollievre are both fighting for their political lives at this point. Blanchet too to an extent, if the Bloc loses significant ground Federally.



    Considering i've nothing but disdain for the BQ, i'm pleased with this turn of events

    Mentioning anything at all that is revealed in later books is a spoiler. It's not all about plot. Explanation enough?

    I worked in a bookstore for a summer in college and came across this plain white galley of MoI. Read it, cuz it was a big honkin' book. Loved it, went GotM and then DG in that order.
