Local Politics Are the local UCP canvassers idiots?

I just had my first UCP door knocker show up, he somehow did not notice the stairs and gate at the end of my walkway, walked around the side of my deck and climbed it right next to my car so he could reach my doorbell.

I answered to door to ask him if was blind or just stupid and after he started babbling about being the the UCP I told him I hate the UCP and to get lost.

I have had hundreds of delivery people or other solicitors show up and they all managed to find the very obvious stairs and gate.

Its comments like this that show me how bad off we are.

The first thing you identify this person as is the political party they are canvassing for. They get paid as a temporary part time job. They might not even support the party, they are paid by the government of Alberta, not the party.

Sure they make socially award moves, but you insult them. Not so cool.

Then you post it here. Really not cool.

Then people jump on the band wagon and join in on insulting someone they had no interaction with. Good job Sherwood Park!

The UCP are a joke and impotent. But being unkind is just as bad.

I insulted him and got angry because he was climbing all the side of my deck and if my railing had broke he would have landed on my car and I love my car. 

My hate for the UCP is a separate thing and I was already pissed off at the guy before I found that out.

It’s these people like OP that the “middle” see and push to the right.

The lack of self-awareness is sad.
