I would love to give the NDP a chance but alas...

Alas what? You vote for change, or you get more of the same.

....given our countries previous voting patterns it's unlikely to happen next election. And considering I'm from Alberta my NDP vote doesn't amount to much.

Sounds like you are in a place where voting your conscience has no downside. The NDP went from nothing to almost winning a couple of cycles ago before the Liberals found a celebrity to win over everyone. If it ever happens again, it won't be predictable.

You're right but there always a fear that I'd be splitting the vote by going NDP. I think I'll stick to my guns this election.

I wouldn't. Their hearts are in the right place but on a policy level Singh's NDP is just completely incoherent. About the only specific policy of theirs I like is introducing more taxes on wealth, not just working income.
