Wat are your neighbors like? Is Alberta really Canada's Texas?

Well, I've only lived in the urban centres so I haven't really lived among the worst of it. Having moved from a small city in northern BC to Edmonton my immediate environment feels significantly less, ah, reactionary actually, haha. But the rural areas of the province are among the most conservative in the country and unfortunately the way ridings are here rural areas are disproportionately represented in the legislature which makes following provincial politics very aggravating.

Another good argument in favor of proportional elections.
