Red-Blue map of N. America from an Alberta perspective

Kevin Steel of the Western Standard has composed a more accurate red-blue map of the United States and Canada.

http://westernstandard.blogs.com/shotgun/2004/11/a_canadian_guid.html

It takes in to account the state by state breakdown of the US Election, and takes in to account the Conservative/ Liberal-Socialist-Separatist split in the last Canadian election.

The red is Republican (US), Conservative (Canada) The blue is Democrat (US), Liberal/ NDP (Canada) The light blue are the Quebec separatists

As an Alberta conservative, I like this map much better than the others. We out in western Canada don't get lumped in with our Kanuckistani cosuins.

My husband and I flipping channels and stopped off on CSPAN when we saw some journalism panel discussion re: the election. What a bunch of idiots!!!

Anyway, I told him that we should annex Western Canada and Canada can have the Northeast.

Sounds fair to me!

Looks like the red states are trying to choke the blue states.

[Dan Middleton]

Dang, the northern half (uh, two-thirds) of B.C. is that liberal?

They need to color Vancouver, BC blue. Am I wrong?

[PureSolace]

I thought Vancouver was "Seattle Lite"..... and Seattle is "San Francisco Lite"...

Try refreshing the screen. If that doesn't work, right click and select "View Image".

western canada should become part of the US and the NE US should go to canada....i say, lets trade.

Agreed. But only if they'll take Californistan, too ;-)

[ErnBatavia]

How I wish we could divide my state, California, into an east-west split....leave the blue designation for just a dozen counties, all coastal, and the rest would be as red as the midwest.

[aft_lizard]

the upper peninsula in michigan is quebecois seperatists?

[Salvation]

[kingattax]

throw that in too

[knews_hound]

My one quibble is that California is in fact also divided.

Al though the coast is very blue, the rest of the state is solid blue.

I love skiing in BC and Alberta. It's the best.

The red N.A. geography needs to coordinate with and support each other.

Quebecistan can go join the great French Empire (now that French Indochina is lost)!

Sorry to tell you Saskatchewan is not coloured correctly.

Saskatchewan has a far left socialist government in power.

I'm skeered of that huge voting block north and west of Hudson Bay.

[Missouri]

Its posssible. Counties in Western Virginia broke off from that state to become West Virginia back in 1863. Well, it became a state in 1863.

[KingPin]

Wait! You mean Alaska isn't in the pacific Southwest of California?

[Alberta's Child]

I believe the map is based on the last Federal election, not individual provincial elections.

Since when is any damn part of the People's Republic of British Columbia Red??!!

[BigSkyFreeper]

Yep, Saskatchewan should be colored blue.
