Alberta after Wildrose: gagged and bound
Danielle Smith likes to portray her party as the moderate alternative to Alberta's Conservatives. Turns out, she's just spinning her wheels. This is one scary bunch of ignorant rednecks. Not to mention climate deniers, religious fanatics, homophobes and general assholes. All in the name of this God dude. He must be one evil motherfucker.
In a stunning development, Smith refuses to apologize for Allan Hunsperger's hate speech. That says more about Wildrose than Allan the Hun's despicable words. Pretty soon you're going to need a passport for Alberta. It's like a foreign land.

Lived in Alberta, the Wild Rose province, thirty years ago. After about one year in Edmonton, I was glad to return to Ontario to civilisation. It is everything you said in your post. Most of the Albertan born people think they’re cowboys in the Wild West, and are much more atuned to the USA than their own country. It’s a nasty place to be if you’re not a raving redneck.
