It's only xenophobic if if think it's a bad thing. Is it xenophobic against Albertans to say that they typically vote for the Conservatives? Of course not, it's just a fact. Just like historically, Catholics tend to vote for the Liberals and Protestants tend to vote Conservative. Again, it's not showing prejudice against those groups, it's just the way politics work. The body politic of the country is basically a conglomeration of special interest groups, immigrants being one of those among many. It's also a fact that immigrants tend to vote for the Liberals more so than they do Conservatives. I also think you're underestimating political parties here. Of course they implement policies that are intended to have long term effects.
