Default A few more Federal seats for Alberta!

O.K. folks this is your chance for a well paying job an indexed pension and all the perks of being an MP, like being called "the Honorable " even if you aren't!

There are a few here who should run, and get started now. Someone asked before if there was a list of qualifications that you had to have and the answer is no. Smart or stupid, rich or poor, any of the 5 colours we come in, all can become MPs. It would be great if it was one of us.
Democracy needs candidates, I'll contribute $100 to anyone who becomes a candidate.

The only way Alberta is getting a few more federal seats is if quebec gets a lot more.

It's written into the constitution.

I’d kick in $100 for Elk11 if he put retirement on hold to move to Edmonton and run for office. He would destroy stupidity in a heartbeat in a debate. And neutralize it on doorsteps as well.

Nobody could convince me to move to that socialist cesspoil, and anyone that thinks that Ontario and Quebec would actually let Alberta have more influence in federal matters, is delusional.

Old Strathcona would love you to pieces, you’d be an integral member of Notley’s inner circle, and you look good in orange. Hell, before you know it, you’d be a special interest group parade Marshall.
