West Not In Under PM Harper, Say Albertans
February 21, 2008

(Angus Reid Global Monitor) - Many adults in Alberta believe their
influence on Canada’s affairs has not increased since the federal
Conservative party formed the government in 2006, according to a poll
by Angus Reid Strategies. 56 per cent of respondents believe the West
"is not in".

In addition, 49 per cent of respondents think Canada’s federal
government treats Alberta fairly, while 41 per cent say it does not.

In the 1993 Canadian federal election, the governing Progressive
Conservatives—led by Kim Campbell—were reduced to just two seats in
the House of Commons. The Reform party—formed by western Canadians who
were upset with Ottawa’s policies—received a high level of support in
areas usually dominated by the Progressive Conservatives and elected
52 federal lawmakers.

The Reform party was renamed the Canadian Alliance (CA) in 2000. The
CA merged with the Progressive Conservatives to form the Conservative
party in December 2003. Stephen Harper became the political
organization’s first leader in March 2004.

Canadians renewed the House of Commons in January 2006. The
Conservative party—led by Harper—received 36.3 per cent of the vote,
and secured 124 seats in the 308-member lower house. During his
victory speech, Harper declared: "The West has wanted in, the West is
in now!" Harper leads a minority administration after more than 12
years of government by the Liberal party.

In October 2007, the federal Tories presented their government plan in
the traditional Speech from the Throne, read by governor-general
Michaëlle Jean. The Harper administration announced plans to
"introduce legislation to place formal limits on the use of the
federal spending power for new shared-cost programs in areas of
exclusive provincial jurisdiction" in order to "allow provinces and
territories to opt out with reasonable compensation if they offer
compatible programs."

Conservatism is a psychological illness.
