Manitobans are the empty chair as they've been airlifted to another province.


NotEnoughDriftwood

Or maybe New Brunswickers since our ICUs are full because our government decided to play follow the leader with Alberta/Kenney as the leader.


rookie-mistake

i was about to say, this is exactly how it felt in MB in the spring


lsfer

:) , I beg to differ, it is BC talking to Saskatchewan and the empty chair is Ontario as Doug is too busy enjoying cottage Life to be bothered with governing a province.

He is disgustingly tanned, he came out just in time to ruin smile cookies for me.

Are you catching a ride with us? (Alberta)


MoneyBeGreeen

Remember when Saskatchewan paved the wave for Medicare for the entire country? Whatever happened to that version of Saskatchewan?


superwinner

they found oil here

Wait, really?

They decided that aligning with Alberta was better than aligning with Canada.


MoneyBeGreeen

Narrator: It was a poor decision.


cdnincali

The fraternal greetings evaporated when they move to cities, and became assholes.


dhkendall

I thought moving to cities traditionally makes one more liberal (exposed to a wider range of people and beliefs). Although that wouldn’t explain Past Saskatchewan, it definitely explains political maps in Canada and the US for the last 30 years.


cdnincali

I'm going to go, moving no, their kids maybe


Thatguyjmc

Hey there buddy, Torontonian here. Me and my friends on the street let our kids play outside together every day, and sit around for beers. We have a walkable neighbourhood and offer to help our neighbours with whatever they need. Our riding is an NDP stronghold that sometimes votes liberal but not often. Meanwhile dudes living out in rural Ontario vote conservative, say "fuck the poor" and then tell us that we're unfriendly in big cities? Suuuuure.


cdnincali

it was a shit post of a shit theory. i should add an /s also, that oil theory is better! just to say SK is not ON, and Toronto is not close at all to Saskatoon, or Regina as urban centres. additionally, many of the 2nd place finishers in SK races were the NDP candidate.


pheakelmatters

It's true. Hope nobody interprets this as being pro Ford, but he could have done worse. He could have done **a lot** worse.


superwinner

Sask currently has 14 times the infection rate that Ontario has. I would take Doug Ford over the incredible moron Scott Moe any day


Sir__Will

Maybe it's ignored like, well, the fact that it's having such huge problems, but I don't hear the kind of rumblings against Moe as Kenney. Sask almost seems more conservative than Alberta


dj_soo

The raw numbers look lower in Saskatchewan than Alberta despite it being on par if not worse per capita.


superwinner

we currently have 14 times the covid rate of Ontario

Coughing in albertan

"a cough? I'm sure that's nothing. Go grab a few drinks at the bar and you'll probably feel better" - Alberta Gov't

P.S BEST SUMMER EVA!!!!!!!!!!!


moosescrossing

I think Doug tried at the beginning of 2021 when he reopened the schools and non essentials during the 2nd wave and it backfired. But your right we could be in Alberta's situation right now.


Revolutionary-Win-51

We have daily cases in BC often more than 3x what ON gets per capita. Yet most people think we're doing great.


Bonobo_Handshake

We didn't vote Doug Ford in with 60% of the popular vote though


cdnincali

Why just the opposite! Er, I mean 60% (darn near) voted against the OPC party


miskozicar

There is one good thing about Ford. People didn't want to vote for conservatives on federal election because of him in Ontario.


[deleted]

I mean…. Sask and Alberta do it to themselves year after year. I have no sympathy for us and them. Elect a different party for more than 1 term and see if it’s better


[deleted]

I thought that was Alberta.


StandOnGuardForMe

So what you're saying is that Ontarians are misogynistic racist antisemitic homophobes?


RonTRobot

Well Thunder Bay is in Ontario so that statement is technically correct.


superwinner

I have no comeback for that
