- They voted almost solid blue, so, fair to say that there is a large amount of Alberta that do want that yeah.
  
  And blue in this case is conservative like the rest of the world?
- As an Albertan, yes, that is the goal of way too much of this Provence. Too many think we are already just like Texas. Send help....
They really are North Texas.
Conservatives in 2015: "We no longer have free speech on college campuses, so we're building a cottage industry of weird 20-something online influencers to do publicity stunts on campus where they challenge you to read from the Bible while you piss on the Koran."
Conservatives in 2025: "We're ordering college administrators to find every copy of Noam Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent and have its owner disappeared to an Ottawa blacksite."
She added the online survey for Albertans to share their ideas about school library collections doesn't limit the number of times someone can take the survey which can skew the results.
Welp, hold on while I fill out a survey a couple of times.
- You can do better. Get a script to fill it out hundreds of times, and then distribute it to your friends. Imagine if all 15 million Albertans had their voice heard...
