I will never vote for the WRP or any party led by Jason Kenney. I have become more and more disgusted with the rural based, right wing anger machine on both sides of the 49th these past couple of years.
I do not agree with everything that the NDP are doing, but I don't see any of the other options that were presented to us would have been any better and probably would have been worse. Unless a better progressive choice, such as a PC party led by somehow like Sandra Jansen, comes forward in 2019, I may vote NDP again.

If you're a member of the AUPE you're actually getting a raise, nevermind a theoretical pay cut though. It just feels wrong to me given the state the economy is in. Remember, they are borrowing money and leveraging more debt to do this. It's almost half of their budget man.
Personally I don't believe the NDP will discuss cuts until everyone eventually works for them. Raises for everyone!
Fire away?
