Agree with the apathetic nature of Canadians toward politics. It would take a 9-11 style event for that to change I dont ever see that happening.

Well, it would take a 911 type of vote to sway Alberta. The other provinces have switched many times. The only switch I recall in AB was from PC to Reform. Alberta sticks with incumbents FAR more often than any other area I have lived in.
Could that by why AB gets ignored? Liberal/NDPs figure what's the point and PCs figure its a lock anyways?
