I definitely require high speed internet access. Other than that, I could use some help! EDIT: Mountains are not a deal breaker. Water would be nice, but sea level rise is a concern.

EDIT: Oh, Come ONNNN!!!!

No, that's sadly not true anymore (if it ever was).

Alberta's government is just as fucking insane as any Republican. The rural areas and small towns are redneck Christian hives of intolerance. I got called a "hippie cock-slurper" in the parking lot of a Lethbridge store, presumably because I have long hair. (And ignoring the point that I was getting into the car with my wife and toddler.)

Edmonton is a mix of blue collar and academia, and is a bit of a hard city but I love it. They're reliably left-leaning. Calgary is very money-driven and tends to vote more conservatively (for lower corporate taxes), but hasn't been supporting the UCP that much.
