Even though I'm one of the two dozen Liberals who lived there, it annoys me - it pisses me off - that Central Canadians perpetually associate Albertans, out loud or not, with Jim Keegstra and hooded Klansmen. When they get impatient with persuasion and argument, and when they start to insinuate that Harper is a Nazi, they lose me and a few million other folks, too. I disagree with many of the man's policies, sure. But I don't feel the need to peddle facile bullshit to beat him on the campaign trail.
