No, Saskatchewan also doesn’t exist. We get very little from the feds, for two reasons:
We never vote Liberal, so they do little to earn our vote.
We always seem to vote Conservative, so they do little to earn our vote.
When good things happen it’s because of a unicorn like Ralph Goodale. The NDP could have a fighting chance for a few seats here, but they need to actually campaign and realise that they’re #2 in nearly every riding in the province.
There was a time when Saskatchewan was soley led by the CCF/NDP for 20 years straight (beginning with the father of universal health care, Tommy Douglas, in '44), then 8 yrs of PCs, then Blakeney (NDP) for another 9 years.

Yup, all true, but even then Saskatchewan largely voted PC federally. Very strange political mix.
