The Canadian federal election is set for October the 14th. Living in Alberta means that its going to largely pass us by. Alberta has a stake, as the nations largest repository of oil, as to who wins the election, its more sensitive than others to the Green economics of Dion's Liberals and has the lowest overall tax rate of all the provinces.
But while it arguably has the most to lose, Alberta wont really play a part in this election. Its such a solidly Conservative province that Stephen Harper feels confident ignoring it (Dion showed up to the university in Edmonton, I believe).
Right now I feel like I'm living in leafy Kent...only with 3.5 million people and the size of bloody Europe.
