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!!!!

The thing about Alberta is that they consistently elect the most hardcore right wing crazies in all of Canada.

And they also consistently elect genuinely progressive, openly socialist governments of the kind you imagine Bernie Sanders might run.

There are no middle of the road centrists in 'Berta. You're either a frothing mouthed "Jewish Space Lasers" kind of crazy, or you're a proud union member ready to give everyone UBI and free education.

The latter tend to be found more in the cities, as always.

Unfortunately the former seem to have the edge overall in elections.

So, politically, it's definitely not a great environment, but culturally you'd actually find a lot of like minded folks there. The problem is that right now you'd probably spend your time hanging out with those like minded folks grumbling about your QAnon premier as she sells off the entire healthcare system and deletes sex education from schools.
