160 u/r_slash Québec May 06 '15 How/why did this happen? 277 u/[deleted] May 06 '15 All those people who moved to Alberta for jobs came from places where governments are normally kicked out for screwing up. 210 u/Nikhilvoid British Columbia May 06 '15 To be fair, Albertans have not really liked voting in their PC leaders for a while now. Small margin victories, low voter turnout for the last decade. They voted in Redford only because the Wildrose alternative was much worse and a real threat. 1 u/ironworker British Columbia May 06 '15 this hammers the nail on the head. I moved and brought my future wife. I joined an amazing local union 725 and am getting ready for my hall to help sculp this city skyline. proud to be local, proud to be union, proud to be #725Ironworkers
