re: #497 Romantic Heretic
No, there’s enough to elect a Conservative government and keep them in power for a decade.
But that’s mostly because the Liberals had made themselves really unpopular and many Canadians think of the NDP as ‘commies’.
But after a decade the Conservatives have made themselves even more unpopular than the Liberals and as the Alberta election shows people are starting to think maybe we could use a little socialism.
I have to disagree with the last part. The conservative vote split between the Wild Rose (Canadian teabaggers) and the PC (Progressive Conservatives - yeah, go figure - who are really more like US blue dogs) which resulted in a Liberal win. I don’t think that would have happened if the right and the far right had stayed together.
Divorce…it’s such a difficult time. :-)
I hope the gal in Alberta does amazing things and can get reelected. That would show that the Conservatives are in a major world of hurt.
