Why does Elizabeth May Hate Saskatchewan?

                Stephen Harper, Justin Trudeau, Tom Mulcair –what do they all have in common? As far as they want you to know, nothing. Apart from the fact they’ve all been to Saskatchewan on their campaign trail this election. But one major leader has curiously left our exceptionally shaped province off of their foreseeable campaign list.

                Everyone seems to agree Elizabeth May did very well in that first debate. She’s even gained some momentum for the Green Party and boosted her popularity. People who aren’t hipsters or stoners now know who she is! But then why has she stuck so close to the coasts and more importantly, not visited Saskatchewan. This province needs some Green but May is skipping over it. It makes you wonder, why does Elizabeth May hate Saskatchewan?

                Could it be the province’s staunch leanings towards the Tories in the past number of years? Could it be Brad Wall and the provincial conservative (I mean the “completely different Saskatchewan Party”) government? Or could it be the fact that only half the province is full of the trees she likes to hug? It seems unfair. There are probably some people in Saskatchewan who like the environment and after that debate may want to give her a chance. It’s a chance for May to win over some reluctant NDP supporters who figure the Orange Haze is the only slightly environmental party that has a chance of forming government. It’s really not a good idea to skip out on Saskatchewan. Don’t underestimate us, we are a powerful province. We have FOURTEEN ridings! That’s some important real estate in federal politics!

                Ms. May, if you’re not going to visit us once in a while how can we count on you to represent us when your leader of our country? It shows how out of touch you are with the common people if you won’t even acknowledge the existence of Saskatchewan with even a lame name-based pun about sasquatches. Even America has done that! You should give us the courtesy of a visit even if we’re not asking for it. That didn’t stop the other leaders. Please don’t snub Saskatchewan Ms. May! What do you think we are, New Brunswick??
