    Hate to burst your bubble… but BC’s currently looking likely to elect a conservative party later this month. A conservative party that had staffed up with Alberta separatist staffers, prior to its leader stepping down, and then the subsequent election call.

    A 75% chance of a conservative majority, when the conservatives don’t even have a fixed leader at present – which also makes it really hard to attack them on policies, as it’s not clear if they’re “totally separatist traitor cucks” or just “regular conservative sorts” (ours hadn’t been quite so crazy as the states, until recently, what with all the US influence campaigns and money).

    The interior and northern areas of the province have almost always been conservative areas. Only Vancouver, and parts of the Island, are likely to be ‘sympatico’ with your perspective.
