Many conservatives here say that we need a provincial sales tax. If Notley campaigned on that would you respect it and vote NDP or fall for the political talking point from the UCP.
The NDP didn't run a good campaign and Notley was not good in the debate. But they sure as #### would be better at governing than the group of grifting, incompetent, pseudo-fascist liars that forms our current Provincial government.

I held my nose and voted for the NDP, but it wasn't because I felt great about it. It was a vote against Smith and the UCP, but not exactly for the NDP.
Where did the UCP lie here though? Like I know a million places, but where are you talking about in relation to what I said? The NDP said they were raising the corporate taxes and that was an absolute dagger. All the ads about how we "Can't Afford the NDP" and such were immediately shown to be accurate.
