Isn’t Edmonton the Liberal / NDP powerhouse of Alberta?

Exactly. He’d be more comfortable in Caroline AB which is where the KKK are.

Wait what? I lived near there. As a kid…with no idea…

Although it does explain why a lot of the kids I met were racist…

I live in rural Alberta and it’s pretty rare for anyone to profess admiration for the orange shitbird. It’s usually the people nobody likes to be around anyway.

I call bullshit on this article.

Tbh sounds right I don’t think anyone really likes trump anymore. So maybe a handful of loonies in Canada do like him more than the US

The trick is that they’re cherry-picking the most right-wing province and comparing it to the entire US averaged as a whole.

I hope you’re right because rural Alberta was why we have Danielle Smith as Premier. She’s a lunatic.

Nah they just want somebody to do what they want and Trump was that somebody in the past. As soon as he isn’t useful any more, they will drop him like somebody falling from a window.
