countdown till ucp has majority government in alberta

[doorfx]

I voted today in Calgary. As a caucasian male I was definitely the minority!! Including the election officials running the place.
I am very worried.

On another note, almost all the NDP signs in my neighborhood have been replaced by UCP signs.

Latest poll. 338Canada.com. Close. Edmonton all Orange. Rural all UCP except Lethbridge ?? Environment Minister Shannon Phillips leading. I thought everyone wanted her out? Apparently Lethbridge didn’t receive the message. Won/lost in Calgary.
Prediction UCP 55% vote, NDP %37 vote, other 8% vote.

What a bunch of suckers we are. These will all end up being NDP votes when they are counted AFTER the election.

Edmonton, Edmonton... what can I say!

 

[doorfx]

Wow , they say common sense isn’t so common anymore. I guess Edmonton is proving that old adage in a big way!!!!

home to excess government workers and a large U of A mentality, plus a large union presence. otherwise ???? what happened to all the edmonton sno n mudders they need to get out n vote, ha.

 

[imdoo'n]

the highest number of advance voters i have ever seen. guy in red reed said it was busy all day but after 4 pm it was crazy the amount of voters.

may have a record number of voters out? interesting times.


i think the rebel reporters have done a fine job in exposing the NDP for what they are.

I live in the Edmonton area. Yes it's crazy all the orange up here, but not all of us are government or union workers lol. I voted already, oh ya did I mention that orange is my least favourite colour lol.

We are voting. Something about 50% Edmontonians dislike PC, and private sector. Leduc, Beaumont all private industry. My area Fort Sask, looks like UCP dethrone NDP candidate. Government sector unions are the at issue here. Teachers union, health unions, City of Edmonton, AUPE, Corrections Canada (Federal Union), University’s staff, students. Fact is Governments are too large, expensive to maintain. 1930-40. Ratio of Government union employee to private sector 1:10. Ten private sector workers pay 1 government sector employee. Fast Forward 2019 ratio 1:4. Four private sector workers pay for one government union member. No wonder why no disposable income. Increased government size 150%. Need to privatize more government sector. Look now NDP cancelling Alberta Registries driver Training. Making unionized, driver teaming exams. Don’t work Saturdays? Shut down after 8 hours. Versus streamlined system. Sure there are deficiencies in driving. However it can be fixed privately. Enough rant. Go vote Tuesday UCP.

Why would the military folks support a socialist government? Never see another new piece of equipment again.

I dread going to Edmonton these days, Not hard to tell the place changed over the years and this damn orange shading is one indication of that.
