That's wild, I wonder why not/if it's a conservative thing somehow?
The NDP has won most provincial elections in Manitoba for the last 50 years, I would be surprised if the conservatives were able to block it here but not elsewhere.
That's wild, I only really notice Manitoba during federal elections where, as far as I recall, conservatives have generally won. Any idea why the two differ? Or am I completely out to lunch?
Back in the day Saskabush and Manitoba were traditionally NDP, because they're both farm-based economies and the NDP developed out of the CCF.
In the 80's both provinces started a swing to the right so PC's became the provincial alternate.
Right, I completely forgot the NDP origin story! Thank you!
Well, til!
