It's not like the UCP is an unknown. So you're not justing trying them out to see what happens. You known what has happened in four years, so why are you being so cagey in expressing how they match your beliefs and interests? What's the reason for being mealy-mouthed?

You said you want a party that stands against the Federal government, to what end? In each instance where the NDP worked with the Federal government for a solution, Albertans were better off than every similar instance where the UCP worked against the Federal government. Look at the carbon tax, where we were better off with the one the NDP developed than the default one the UCP took. It made it worse. So you want it to be worse just... because?

Also, I haven't attacked your character, so I think it's a bit ####ty to attack mine directly after complaining about complaining about certain comments fostering division. Be better if you're going to pretend to care about that stuff.
You are using a turn of phrase, “ give them a try” to decide I'm making a nonchalant decision in my voting. I am not, I am voting this way because they took action on several fronts that a important to me. You will ask for examples and a burden of proof and if I dont take the time to fully flesh out every example with sourcing you will discredit those examples. It becomes too much, i dont have the time.
You are right, I did attack your character. Im sorry. There has been several instances in the past where you have attacked mine, and I chose not to reciprocate. You often attack posters in direct or passive aggressive means.
