Well, there is a Alberta Seperatist Party. I don't think they have candidates in most urban ridings, but they're everywhere out in the country.

I don't think that 12 candidates in the whole province can really be considered everywhere. I know you said out in the country, but there's got to be more than 12 rural ridings (Maybe there is only 12). Either way, the seperatists can't really be considered everywhere rural or otherwise with only 12 candidates for 83 seats. [/b][/quote]
Okay Mr Literalist, I was just basing my initial statement on the fact that on the weekend I went 'out in the country' to my parents place, a drive that takes me through four ridings, and I was amazed at the density of Separation Party signs along the drive--it seemed they were 'everywhere'.

Had I thought that anyone would have taken my statement to mean that they had candidates in every rural riding in the province, I'd have rephrased it (and to be honest, I can see how someone might read my statement that way). Given the fact that they have candidates in all but one rural riding south of Red Deer though, I think my generalization is fair.
