Given the voting patterns in Alberta (are there any non-UCP Members elected in rural Alberta?), regardless of any arguments put forth to support "rurban" ridings, the effect will be a dilution of urban votes. It would, quite simply, increase the number of UCP votes in these currently urban constituencies, thereby reducing the probability of urban voters electing a non-UCP candidate.
So now MAGA Danielle and her UCP minions want to gerrymander Alberta ridings just like her idol Trump and the Texas Governor are doing! In a naked bid to make the votes of city dwellers diffused by slicing them up into Swiss cheese curds, surrounded by rural UCP mouth breathers and knuckle draggers who bay at a full moon, their aim is utterly clear- if the UCP can’t win city ridings then chop them into splinters!
