      Alt-right pipeline is alive and flourishing. Check on your loved ones mental health and reach across the aisle with open arms if you can, block if you can’t. Try not to feed the trolls, and Godspeed!

      E: can to can’t

        Check on your loved ones mental health and reach across the aisle with open arms if you can, block of you can

        Are you advocating to block loved ones if their mental health is too far gone or am I misreading this?

    Please not another liberal government, getting tired of the restrictions they place on law abiding citizens.

    I saw Liberals leading Alberta, which made me do a double take.

    Then I read the small print. Yeah, keep your expectations in check it’s not that hype.

        UCP was and no longer is the combination of the old AB Progressive Conservative Party and the alt right party Wildrose. Jason was a shortsighted greedy twit and Wildrose cannibalized his party from within as everyone could’ve and did predict. It was the only quick way to win an election again after the PC’s disgraced themselves with a string of incompetent/corrupt leaders in a row and the ANDP finally won a single term. Unite The Right was the slogan. United Conservative Party. Straight forward naming.

        UCP is a provincial party only. They’re basically Republicans, and work with Take Back Alberta which are kinda like the Heritage Foundation behind Project 2025 in the USA. They’re currently preoccupied with forcing diversity policy out of Edmonton Public Libraries.

        Provincial Liberals are irrelevant here because the ANDP is closer to the political alignment of the federal Liberals than the federal NDP, so they’re redundant. Federally the Liberals name has been mud in Alberta since Trudeau Sr. and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Energy_Program

        edit: ANDP only lost the last election by a couple thousand votes. Notley stepped down, Nenshi won leadership for opposition, the ex mayor of Calgary. Moved party further to center? I guess. That’s the speculation, and Nenshi mused about changing the color from Orange to Purple. As in, mix conservative blue with center-left orange.

        idk may as well give a better overview.
