Born and raised Albertan here. (A Thread)
I lived my entire life in a 1-party state; the #Conservative one.
My whole life, the same cries: "We're just not being represented! No one listens in Ottawa"
Can we talk about the real problem?
It’s not #Trudeau. Not this time.

When we had to do 'belt tightening' due to the global recession, no life lines were laid down 'just in case'.
It wasn’t even considered.
We struggled under @stephenharper. It wasn’t easy.

Where was the fiscal prudency, or the governance foresight to ensure we didn’t fail? what if, and when the Alberta economy faltered? What plans were made?

It’s a joke in Alberta how much the prices move when we’re producing it only blocks from the pumps.
Do you remember the past 20 years? It wasn’t the 'golden years' but it certainly wasn’t the silver pocket lining either.

Break the mold that has kept you in place FOR SO LONG.
Try casting a ballot for another party. Any party.

In fact, the #conservatives could run a Rubber Boot in #Alberta or #Saskatchewan and it would have 10k more votes - and be just as effective as the #CPC has been to date.
It'll probably cost less to have a boot in office though.

Besides, always voting for 1 party, really, it may as well be called #Communism and the last I checked that just isn’t a conservative value.
Want real change in Alberta?
Want real representation for the West?
Want real results for your Economy?
