Not sure if many follow twitter but there is some super funny stuff on the Alberta election that is on there the last couple of days. Here is the background from a Calgary newspaper.
[h=1]Welcome to #NewAlbertastan. Canada's socialist paradise.[/h]Our favourite new hashtag started with an outrageous comment from the federal justice minister.
Justice Minister Peter MacKay said the mood in the Conservative caucus meeting Wednesday morning following the election was dark. “It was like a morgue,” said MacKay. “Someone said it was like — it’s Albertastan now.”
It didn’t take long for the mocking to begin on Twitter....
You can follow here... Be warned this is all in fun and not to be taken as an insult to either party, just some light hearted mocking of Peter MacKay and his attempt to be funny.
Petrograg is Calgary and Notleygrad is Edmonton.
