The current liberal party and the NDP have drifted much further left over the last decade then their predecessors as well , so by extension supporting that party you could argue you are more left oriented as well. I would agree with you that most posters here are likely more financially conservative but I was speaking more specifically to the more vocal users.
So have the majority of conservative parties until recently. Most notably the Alberta UCP has regressed. They have made a major shift to the right socially, and the federal party seems to be emulating some of that rhetoric. Policy likely follows suit.

In that respect, wouldn't their supporters also have gone further right?
