It almost makes me think that the sign went up on the long lawn.
People who actively support Smith and want her to lead for four years get a pretty bad reputation, I think. And an unfair one.

Everyone imagines them as these backwater hillbillies or rig pigs and they’re not.

It’s insulting, honestly. These people ARE your neighbours. Sure, maybe they work in O&G, maybe some do live on a farm in the middle of nowhere, but a lot of them are just like anyone else. They’re doctors, lawyers, business owners, retail managers, teachers, etc. UCP supporters come in all colours and we need to remember that and respect that. In fact, the only thing all these people have in common is that they are hopelessly, impenetrably stupid. On a level nobody no good person could possibly even begin to understand.

Be better.
