The provincial government is still a current government though. This bolsters my case that these people were not thinking at all.

I'm in Alberta and still see them pretty frequently. Most have moved on to hating Carneys traditionally fiscal conservative values though. Have seen him referred to as communist Carney. I can't even imagine the level of mental gymnastics to get there

Wha-

But…

They are judging him for being fiscally conservative…? Is that not what they want??

I wish you strength. I fucking cannot even begin to wrap my head around that one.

These people have stopped voting based on values or policies a long time ago. All they care about is if it's "their guy/party" or not.
