Shifting Sands shows that Alberta is not the conservative monoculture people think it is. The Viewpoint Alberta dataset explored in this volume provides an unparalleled opportunity to study the dynamics of public opinion on a range of topics. Drawing on five years of survey data, this insightful book gives a penetrating, down-to-earth look at the province's political soul. It's an accessible analysis that traces the roots and emerging realities of separatism, populism, polarization, and conspiracy theories. The authors unveil complex ideological truths and challenge common identity myths, showing how the gap between Alberta's fabled past and its diverse present is creating sharp political divisions. This is a crucial look at where the province has come from, where it may be going, and how it can address major issues ahead. A compelling read for anyone seeking to understand the most turbulent place in Canadian politics, Shifting Sands is an invaluable resource for scholars, students, policymakers, public servants, and journalists. Contributors: Emily Boivin, Brendan Boyd, Hannah Diner, Elaine Hyshka, Michelle Maroto, Gala Palavicini, Eyene Okpanachi, Rissa Reist, Feodor Snagovsky, David K. Stewart, Angelia Wagner, Evan Walker, Jared J. Wesley, Rob Currie-Wood, and Lisa Young
