I can't see myself knocking on peoples doors and explaining this in 2 minutes (not that I've ever knocked on doors for the Liberals).
If people don't understand something, they reject it as evil. The fear of change is amplified in small-c conservative Canada. IMHO, this isn't going to fly well in Ontario/Quebec. I don't think Stephane actually expected to get votes in Alberta from this plan.

Yup. Anyone who opposes this is too stupid to understand it.
I guess we can't all be as perfect and intelligent as you, eh?
Though you unwittingly (or, perhaps deliberately, given your obvious intelligence) showed why the Liberals are completely unfit to govern this nation. "I don't think Stephane actually expected to get votes in Alberta from this plan."
Any party that actively works to offend and alienate one region of the country for the benefit of another has no right to govern.
But what do I know? I'm too stupid to understand.
