Way too many people voted yes to the other 9 questions

The vote to remain is not the victory we think it is. This is an indication that Alberta will not change its voting habits and will continue to vote against self-interest if it means seeing less immigrants. We voted to remain... we also voted to be racist, and deprive people of services. We voted for things that are already law and arent up for discussion like voter ID during elections.

To me this is a UCP victory and indicates they will continue being elected. This is an indication that the culture war rhetoric will not be ramping down and that this province is all in.

I am so beyond disappointed with these election results. I really thought we would know better and Im so tired of waiting for Albertans to finally be informed and make informed decisions.

Im tired boss.

Everything must have its own butthole, even Canada

And apparently the butthole of Alberta is Grande Prairie. Lets be honest here, most of the province may be a little backwards, but it's not that bad. There are 4 districts all within spitting distance of Grande Prairie where the majority of the ugly attitudes are concentrated.

The entire QE2 corridor between Leduc and Airdrie is an awful backwater, but Grande Prairie is the only place that has made me fear for my safety as a non-conservative.

Literally every town in rural alberta is its butthole

Ive seen so many of them. None of them beat the allegations.

I won't defend all of them, but most aren't a lost cause either. GP though... There's something rotten there and I'd wager it's poisoning the rest of the well.

Rocky Mountain House is majority traitors. I won't visit/spend money in any part of Alberta again that voted majority to separate.
