I downvoted because you are just toeing the usual 'alberta is special and here is why the rest of you have to adapt' bullshit that we have heard a million times. Get over it. We are not all misled into thinking that most of the province is regressive. That is how it is.

The majority of that province is hateful morons being super proud of themselves. I lived there for 20 years, my wife for all of her life. So don't go saying I am just following the herd. The facts are simply that outside of calgary and edmonton the vast majority of albertans are insular xenophobes.

Are you seeing a ton of small towns in any other province where the town meetings are full of assholes bleating about wanting to join the US? Because I can tell you right now the acme, beiseker, trochu, three hills, irricana, and carbon, town meetings are FULL of these fucking people.

WHEN DID I AT ALL SAY THIS, YOU ARE PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH.

Also congrats on again blanketing Albertans as a whole. I can meet some jerks in Northern Ontario, and you won't see me calling the entire province racist, but somehow that's acceptable for you to do with Alberta.

Thanks, appreciate being casually called an asshole, racist, xenophobic prick based on where I was born.

If you choose to align yourself that way that is on you. I said 'the majority'.
