You are free to vote as you please but if your criteria for electing a party is based on a party member's Facebook post you are as much an idiot as he is.

Ditto.
I'm in no way a Climate Change denier, but I just accept the fact that as Albertans there is nothing we can do to meaningfully move that needle.
People like to point to the 'filthy oilsands' but the reality of the matter is very different, we're an enormous place with a small population, if anything we're likely a Carbon Sink.
I find it ludicrous that we're up in arms over climate change that we cant control and are killing ourselves over it.
I'd give Climate Change more consideration when the major polluters and culprits start taking it seriously, in the meantime theres no sense for us to worry about it to the degree that we have been and it certainly isnt a major concern of mine in terms of voting for local representation.
