Our CPC MP is dumber than a sack of hammers, habitually unavailable & had done jack diddly effing squat for our riding.

Who’s your current MP? Would be nice if there was some competitive races here in Calgary. My riding just defaults to blue (not saying that isn’t the best choice) but having a legitimate race with real ideas and strong competition would lead to a much healthier democracy. I might not even vote due to covid and the landslide blue wave that will be in my riding.
Had a discussion with my neighbors and they couldn’t even name the candidate in our area. Basically vote blue because it’s the “Alberta thing to do.” Such a dangerous perception as this is how the political process is under minded. What incentive is there for my MP to campaign, debate, share ideas when the outcome is basically a given. I expect more from our political system and all parties should have ideas that invigorate their demographic.
