Would you be happy if those people got out there and voted Liberal, if that's what they wanted? Or you're just pissed that they're not voting who YOU think they should? Cause that's what it seems most people here on S&M think.

"Get out there and vote, as long as it's for who I think you should vote for."

The whole Alberta NDP lynching thing on S&M makes me think so...

Nope. Not at all. If I do vote, I will vote for who I want to. (in this case, I happen to be in agreement with all the S&Mers) But holy fawk, if I happened to agree with Tommie the Commie, or that other complete idiot, and voted for them, you (people of S&M, not YOU specifically) cry babies would never let me hear the end of it.

Case in point, the Alberta NDP win. Heaven forbid I voted for them. Everyone on here would have me strung up by my balls with my throat slit, letting the vultures pick at my brains.

Edit...
And to make matters worse, I still can't see where the NDP has done anything wrong in Alberta. Sure a whole phuck of a lot better than Allison Redford.

Like, give it a rest already you guys. It's called a democracy for a reason.

My six year old just asked if I voted. I said I did. She said I hope you didn't vote for Justin, he's just not ready.

Or it just might be that the NDP have broke every province they have ever governed over in Canada ! People
seem to get pissed when most of their jobs are thrown away to appease a few special interest groups...
likly that has more to to with the concern over the current government !

The state of economics in Alberta has nothing to do with the NDP. It's a global issue right now, that's what happens when all the eggs are in one basket. I'm by no means a NDPer but it is theirs to loose in Alberta. Perhaps 4 years of something new might get the old ways a kick in the pants. Same thing happened in BC, it's is odd that they NDP seem to get the vote during economic lows though.

It doesnt bother me, its their choice and I respect that. I voted for who I felt was most capable of being our PM and make comments to support my views, whether there's an audience for it is anybody's choice to listen or not. Im not going to try and tell them how to run their lives.

The dippers are doing a fine job of hanging themselves around here imo

My issues with the provincial is not what they have done.... it's what they haven't done.... well the 2% corporate tax increase was poorly timed so I guess I don't like that but more frustrating is the lack of a budget and the uncertainty (long timeline) of the royalty review. so 1 thing that they did was wrong in my opinion but the 2 things that they haven't done hurt more at this point.

It's too bad Danielle fawked the Wild Rose party just before election time, they would have won the majority

And you're certain that either of the other 2 would have been any better? I'm not trying to jump on you at all here Boggs, just using you as an example. I really don't have a problem with the complaining such as this. It's the "I hope everyone that voted the NDP is happy now!" or the "Anyone that voted NDP sure fawked us up good". Things such as this are complete bullchit IMO!!

I agree that everyone is entitled to their opinion and corresponding vote..... I just wish more folks would vote with their brain and not their heart, the "anybody but Harper" vote irks me and to answer your question I do believe the PC's would have done better so far the NDP has kept the PC personal tax increases in place PLUS upped corporate tax, When Prentis the Dic released his version of the budget I was OK with it and my family was in the "hardest hit" category. This is not a good time to load up businesses with a tax increase AND minimum wage increase.

Anyway that's just my opinion.... but with regards to your earlier comment, your right I would prefer that uneducated "I hate the PM" types stay home and not vote.... brutal but honest.
