Let me be clear what's important to me is one thing and that's the welfare of my fellow Albertans. The Alberta or Canadian economy does not effect my employment in the least. My job is recession proof and if anything the ever increasing stringent world emissions is a boon to my career. My wife is a teacher with 10+ years experience so she's in the clear for the rest of her career. My wife and I are set and Alberta could be in ruins and I would be in a personal good spot. That said I have neighbors and friends that have seen tough times recently and I also have the futures of my two boys to worry about. I want what's best for this province as I'm a proud Albertan. Hell with my climate change views. Hell with my religious views. Hell with my social justice views. I want the best for my neighbors and fellow Albertans that post in CP. I want Alberta to prosper again. Do I see a party that's going to deliver that? No. But I don't believe we can go another four years of having a party in power that is not investment friendly. I fully realize that the NDP is not solely to blame for our current situation but the timing of an NDP government in Alberta couldn't have been worse. Sure Notley has changed some of her stances (when she realized just how Alberta's bread is buttered) and become respectable in my eyes how she's handled some things but just having an NDP government in power is bad for business in the eyes of foreign investors. We just can't go another four years like this and I do mean "we" because the last four years haven't been bad for me at all.
