The school system is under Sask and all babies are born on the Sask side. 18 is legal in Alberta to drink but you can’t go to the bar across the street in Sask.

Alberta is definitely NOT left wing. More left than Saskatchewan, sure, but all around it's the texas of canada, and it's pretty right wing. Especially by canadian standards

[@saskatchewanrealtor]

Agreed. Just the current government is left. Generally the western world is a little too left in my opinion but what do you do

While the BC West Coast does have its nice points, the plusses in Sask outweigh the plusses on southern Vancouver Island. Besides, with Fort Qu'Appelle being in a valley between 2 lakes, it has some of the elements of the coast without the insane cost of living.

Sask has the lakes. Natural sand beaches clear warm water and not a lot of bugs most years in the forests make sask a great place for laking. Very underrated. 4 and a half months of the year there is nowhere on the planet better to be. The problem is the other 7 months or so. Sask gets a bad rap for its flat land but those people who laugh are ignorant of the utter beauty of Saskatchewans central northern lakes and beaches.

[@saskatchewanrealtor]

@@Hyberlol agreed the open skies have their beauty too. But with affordability here and job market it is possible to do snowbird thing and sunny winters aren’t too terrible if we can somehow avoid the deep freeze

yea i think he was getting at is yes alberta is/has been staunchly conservative, but over the years the onturdians,kweebekers and people from little china (BC) started to move to alberta making it a bit more left leaning over the years compared to Sask which sucks cause most of them are probably gonna do what the equivalent of what californians do in the states which is ruin the current state, then move to the next state, live there a bit enjoy it, start changing policies that are heavily left leaning, new state turns to shit and rinse and repeat

@@saskatchewanrealtor Since 1971 Saskatchewan has had 27 years of left leaning political control. As for Alberta they have had 4 years of left leaning political control in that same time frame.
