3. Well, we all knew the NDP win in Alberta would be short-lived.

And it may come back again. The conservatives are going to go back to the same ol' same ol' that caused a bunch of the problems in Alberta in the first place. So yeah, we're going to have a couple of big ugly Conservative majorities for a while (with Dougie in Ontario), but with some of those comments we've seen recently from Maxime Bernier, I think that we're going to see some push-back against the right in Canada once again. I'm not super-excited about the next federal election, and I'd hate to see Scheer win, but I suspect he might after several mis-steps from Trudeau.

Also, why do "conservatives" always start their victory speeches with "<geographical region> is open for business!!" ? It's gross. The citizens are your priority, not the corporations.

Agreed. Dropping electoral reform so quickly was a mistake True Dough Apr 2019 #7
