It's the "conservative" ethos- fuck over your fellow humans to make a dime.
Saskatchewan has been pretty solidly conservative for almost 20 years now. Alberta has had a left-wing provincial government more recently than Saskatchewan. Scott Moe is a huge source of Covid misinformation. Also he killed a woman with his car. Your guess is as good as mine as to how someone like that manages to take the provinces highest office. Actually very similar situation in MB as well.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that understanding The Prairie Provinces is a lot more complex and interesting than the rest of Canada ever seems to want to engage with, and these kind of Authoritative drive-bys ("Albertans are defined by an ultra-conservative fuck-you-i-got-mine ethos") aren't particularly valuable when trying to understand the prairies (explain why AB has one of the highest levels of support for abortion? Why was Calgary the first major city to elect a Muslim mayor?) But they do serve as dismissive and diminishing ways to generate national division, and frankly I don't think feeding those narratives with terse snipes is valuable.
K. That is their overall ethos though, regardless of the tertiary anecdotes you have listed.
Solid point. I retract my previous comments.
How dare you have a multi-varied and diverse opinion! Don't you know where you are?!
