They really treat Canada like a wayward US state. Good on the Canadian government to tell the US to fuck off.

    “You Albertans” is a very broad brush. The current government only won by a very narrow margin (54-45). Our cities are largely progressive, and even our rural areas are only about 2/3rds conservative. In fact, among home-grown Albertans the UCP would already have been tossed out if we hadn’t been collecting the people who washed out of polite society in other provinces for decades now. On average, we’re less conservative than rural Ontario, but no one is ready for that conversation.
