The Conservative Government of Alberta has a lot of what we call Red Tories.
Yes conservative but with many liberal features to balance it out. Oh don't
come to BC you will be disappointed in Lotus Land to be sure.
Saskatchewan is Conservative at the moment but it is the cradle of Socialism
in Canada. Manitoba you wouldn't like, Ontario changes by the week except
for Rob Ford who just goes silent from time to time.
Quebec is not the place for you either, New Brunswick conservative yes by
American Statndards no, Nova Scotia can't make up its mind Prince Edsard
Island is Liberal and Newfoundland well that is a different kettle of fish altogether
The fact is no matter what jurisdiction you are in, in Canada its a mixture of left
and right in an open society. America thinks we are all Socialists which is not
true either and that includes Alberta.
Personally I like things the way they are. On some issues I am very conservative
on other issues I side with the socialists, but I am not on one side or the other.
There are a lot of Canadians who respond with left and right views including in
Alberta. Perhaps this is not the homeland for you. I think you would suffer a real
culture shock at times I know I do and I have lived here all my life.
Thank you sir for your reply. As I stayed in States I discovered the most old generations are much more better than younger ones, the most old generations although they have their stupidities but generally they are very good people, they are the ones that have a lot of excellences. Different with what neo con and new liberal's propaganda, I think the old generations are much more love freedom and much more opening and adventurous than the younger ones. Although they lack of individual spirituality but they as in a religion they do believe god and know there should no hatred in a person's mind.
"On some issues I am very conservative"
It's not about that but about you sir respond my post without cynical without hatred inside, compare with a lot of rest, esp. some more pathetic ones in them, you are much more better.
" Perhaps this is not the homeland for you. "
I don't need to treat one place as only place to live. As I said what I want is get another passport. You would like to know that the current day's governments like to do a thing called treasure confiscation. Like the stuff in South, it passed a new law that if you want to quit States and if it thinks your overall money over a certain number, it will take a large part of your assets, or / and it will ban you from enter States forever as masters still in power and don't want change.
Also delete your passport while you are in another country, and if at that time you only have one then it will be very tragic.
" I think you would suffer a real culture shock"
Cultural Shock is a collectivism conception. Lefts always liking to create fake collectivism words. To me there is only the Individually Openess to see a new place. As I lived a lot of places I never had that. Before I made long term move I always check if I got relative high similarity with the majority people of that place; if not I also have preparations if I need to go to that place for some reasons. Also to me to study a new Indo-European Language only take short time, and it is becoming more and more shorter. The languages I know have already covered a lot of relative high develop places. Thank you for you reminder though.
" Oh don't come to BC“
I know BC coast is very left, I lived in places near it too.
"in Canada its"
Sir there has relative more right ones(the right in my stated above, Individualism)
Sir thank you again for your post. You are the type of person I would like to see in North America. It was very glad to see you.
May god(that christian god) bless you, sir!
Essenz, welcome to the forum!
I live in Alberta, and have the entire 34 years I've been alive, even when I was living in the little corner of Alberta that is stupidly called BC (Fort St John).
I would highly suggest that you not move here with some notion that you are going to be pleased with the political landscape.
Firstly, day to day, Canadians are not highly political (this forum is an outlet for the geeky handful of us who like to argue politics). When people talk about polite Canadians, a general unwillingness to argue with one another over government is part of that (yes, there are some exceptions, but generally speaking).
And political views are not categorized the same as the US. My husband, for example, is considered conservative. Yet, he supports gay marriage, social assistance for the poor, and universal health care. There is a separation between his social views and his fiscal views, of supporting lower taxation, tax breaks to encourage corporate investment in our province, and other fiscally conservative views.
You might not find what you're looking for by basing your decision on politics, and then us Canadians would all feel bad that you went to all that trouble just to be let down.
If however, you do decide to make the move, if you're looking to base it on political compatibility, and conservative values are what you're after, then I'd suggest you look up past provincial election results, find where the Wild Rose party gained the most votes, and move there.
"I would highly suggest that you not move here with some notion that you are going to be pleased with the political landscape. "
I am not for that. I said I would like to know cities near that.
"You might not find what you're looking for by basing your decision on politics"
As I said I don't look for a group of people like that. I am looking for specific individuals, and I have got a lot of ones whom living in different countries.
Also as I said I am not only come to that place because of political.
"find where the Wild Rose party gained the most votes, and move there."
I had did that long time. Databasing is what I did firstly. What I would like in here is do thing, like say to talk and see responses, to observe.
Thank you for some content in your reply, though.
To be very direct I talked with some other people whom are living in Alberta, some because of business, and they are not like the stuffs I met in here. I know the stuffs in here are different with a lot of people in Alberta, also much more lower than a lot of people whom I saw on internet that are currently living in States.
You don't get to determine who posts where in this forum. Go ahead, tell me not to 'stick in here'...watch how well that will work.
I said it very clearly, this is a place that everyone can post, do not disrupt another person's post would be the basic thing. If you want to show your low self then come to show, it will also make yourself feel low about yourself. You like that, pathetic?
How do you think of yourself?
Intelligence
Ability to see another’s perspective.
Working with others
Charity for those in need.
Clarity of thought
1 thru 10 as a self rating guide. 1 bad- 10 excellent - 4-6 average.
Add others if you wish.
That's what left thinks.
As me I treat me as myself, I don't compare with anyone because it's a degrade of myself, I will not attach my standard with any standard.
See that user name here?
And I need to say again, regardless how left's followers think about me, those followers have heavily works everyday, and I have good life that don't need to do that.
And the followers' only thing is come to here to rant to show its low self.
My husband, for example, is considered conservative. Yet, he supports gay marriage,

Firstly I am not con, regardless old con or neo con, I am right wing person in my own standards; secondly I think a person can decide its own marriage, but it is not because of the fake collective tag(that various lefts like to use pla) that it's a gay or non-gay.
" would all feel "
Well how some people think are not important, what important is what I get.
"you went to all that trouble just to be let down."
Not at all, I will get another passport, new experiences, open businesses and get money, and find and develop more specific ones(not a fake collectivism conception: community) I am looking at. I don't have to stay in Alberta, understand?
Different with you I move to here and there is always happening. And I don't think get new experiences is trouble.
I had known Wild Rose long time, personally to live with the places that a lot of people living there is a good option, but due to my essence I feel that leader is a con.
Alberta would give me 10 years or so before it beyonded a certain bad level.
