Just returned from a trip to southern Ontario (KWC area) and I was surprised at the level of Conservative support that I observed.
Also interesting to note is that the general perception of the economy there is positive; a complete contrast from mood here in Calgary. People out there are so far removed from what is happening in Alberta (as usual) that they do not seem to realize that the oil bust is real and will certainly result in a national recession. I think this sentiment works against the Liberals as it will have people questioning the need for deficit spending.
