            Dude, I’m a leftist in Alberta. My vote has literally never mattered. Nobody agrees harder with you than I do.

              Even in other areas the leftist vote has always been the less worse option.

                I literally just vote independent now unless I think it might be close for strategic voting. Which it only ever has once, and the NDP got in here that time.

                My riding still went to the PCs so still didnt matter.

            Yeah but I think it’s important to acknowledge that there’s a huge issue that isn’t being properly addressed here. The implication that there still isn’t important, dire work to be done because the fucking liberals are in power irritates me. The violent jerk to the right that the Canadian Overton window has done this last election does not sit well with me and it disturbs that so many people are okay with it.
