Not complaining just stating a fact.

What he apparently is not realizing is that his complaint could be equally applied to almost every other province (even Quebec!). How many times in the last 50 years has Nova Scotia or Saskatchewan, for example, been the difference-maker in a federal election?

I will ignore the fact that you basically called me an idiot by your first sentence.
The fact of the matter is I don't give a damn about those provinces (and neither do the feds). Our government is skewed and broken and that is just the way it is.
