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!!!!

It you're leaving for progressive reasons, Alberta is north Texas. BC is pretty progressive, although I don't know how they lean outside of metros. I have my suspicions though.

Lol the NDP only won by like 20 votes this election so not as progressive as you'd think. Also our NDP is still center left so not that progressive at all.

Vancouver area is nice, but goddamn expensive. Love it here, but the I have no economic prospects.

Alberta is nothing like Texas. Alberta is largely an atheist population for one thing

But the Christfuckers we do have are obnoxious and loud enough to make you think otherwise

Not really. I grew up in rocky mountain house. One of the most conservative ridings in all of canada, and I grew up surrounded by atheism for the most part. It's way more atheist now compared to then as well

This is very helpful, thank you. I am super liberal.

You're going to want to stick to cities for the most part.

Small town and rural BC is very close to Alberta. They got a bulk deal on Fuck Trudeau stickers for their trucks.

I mean, honestly, that’s true for the entire country.

True pretty much everywhere. Rural folk dislike the government and prefer to rely on themselves. They're right wing. City folk do the opposite.

That pattern is followed almost everywhere, from America to Canada to Australia to Finland.

Yeah, that is what I assumed
