    Alberta and Saskatchewan put together is only about 15% of Canada’s population, so I would’ve assumed the number to be closer to 85%

      Add a chunk of Manitoba and BC, some wackos in Ontario and Quebec (pretty much the center of the francophone conspiracy world at this point…) and you get 30%!

        Deep rural anywhere - the people who keep voting against their (and our) interests.

          Not just deep rural. The entire Okanagan Valley - over a third of a million people - is redder than pee-pee’s arse after a good paddling in his S&M dungeon.

          This comes from oodles of boomers and older people who have been indoctrinated on the “communist menace” of the 50s and 60s, and who think that anything not conservative is evil.

          We also have a fairly decent white supremacist population, and the largest chunk of domestic financial support for the TruKKKer QUANONvoy also came from here. All in all, a cesspool of alt-right Fascism and degeneracy.

          Edit: sigh… this event happened right about the time as I first posted this comment: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/sikh-student-attacked-kelowna-1.6966142
