Alberta has been THE conservative center of Canada for decades when it comes to it's federal politics. It shocked us all when Alberta voted in an NDP (New Democratic Party, a party on the left) provincial government in 2015. Me and my family were thrilled but knew it would only last 4 years as it was an outlier. The Cons were elected in 2019 but they are a disaster and are below the NDP in popularity in recent polls and in fundraising so hope lives, lol.

If your customer base from Alberta is in either the northern region or in the southern rural region it is not at all surprising to see their responses to the federal government and to Covid. Those areas, just like the ruby red regions of the US, are responsible for the majority of the unvaxxed and are the ones in the ICU and also dying.
