Young adults have been flooding into Alberta from other provinces since the 70s. Wave after wave of them. That’s why we’re the youngest province in the country and have been since at least the 90s. Conservative parties have still won every provincial election but one in the last 60 years. So historically, young Canadians moving here from elsewhere doesn’t seem to change the political calculus.
And the federal Conservatives top the polls among 18-44 year old Canadians. I wouldn’t count on demographics turning the tide for the NDP. It’ll come down to political campaigning - a platform, a ground game, and persuasion.
