Found this interesting, I don’t know if this has been posted here or not. Scary stuff.

Well, if it was posted on facebook and the guy said it was not fake news... It must be true.

I suspect we'd all be shocked at the interlocking relationships between political parties and activists. No party is immune.

"Confirmation bias is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's preexisting beliefs or hypotheses. It is a type of cognitive bias and a systematic error of inductive reasoning."

Yea I know it was just a reminder for in the upcoming election. The best part was Nothead started her campaign BS in Lethbridge cause they know they pizzed off a lot of people in Lethbridge. The promises they make, I’d just like to know where they were going to get all the money for their promises

Y2Y tried to get the town of Canmore to tack an extra tax on residents last year but thankfully due to letters to the editor in the local rag and public opinion it got shot down. What gets me is Canmore has some of the most expensive property and rental rates in the province so why are they even here when a storefront in say Milk River would be far less to rent. Just saying

Not fake news and overheard, by someone else and told by a 3rd or even 4th party, then posted on Facebook.



I’m surprised CBC didn’t run it as breaking news.

Perhaps they all started laughing because she doesn't have a hope in hell of re-election.

I dont know, personally I think as outdoors men in general we are in our own little bubble. Don't get me wrong nothing would make me happier seeing Phillips out after this election, but I think the average person might be happier with her in Lethbridge. Lethbridge too is in there own little bubble being a little more insulated from O&G and more agriculture based. Time will tell.
