And I'm not here for rhe political views or the seafood that's for sure
The cost of living there is a big draw to many people, especially young families or couples or anyone in general. The winters are long in Alberta which is one of the negative deterrents, as well their economy heavily relies on oil. Also, many people from Toronto think Alberta is far out of the way in the middle of nowhere. A lot of people think that way who live in their Toronto bubble. Though cities like Calgary and Edmonton are really growing and have a lot to offer for those who want to experience big city life still. Also, you're only an hour from the mountains
Money goes further in Alberta when it comes to buying a property. For 700K, you can buy a very nice house around Calgary. Here 700K gets you a small two bedroom condo that needs renos if lucky.

I'm not defending the choices of Ontarians or saying that this is the case there, but voters who keep an open mind and vote for different parties should be seen as a huge positive.
Idealistic voters who don't consider the unique issues presented during each electoral cycle and at each level are a huge negative in my view. That's what you have in the United States, where people consistently vote against their own best interests based on issues that don't even affect them. It's sad when you can predict a riding before the parties even release their platforms or name candidates.
