There's nowhere in Canada with voting patterns like that.

They won't like the Conservatives for the same reasons they don't like the Republicans, and they wouldn't like the NDP because they'd be the party of urban small l liberals and union members.

A lot of rural places vote NDP in Canada...

Not really agricultural places though. Not since the 1950s, anyway; it was the CCF's wipeout in such places (amongst other things) that prompted the decision to transform itself into a model Gaitskellite social democratic party.

Yes, people have a weird habit of forgetting that the Liberal collapse with other minority groups that once formed their base has been almost as spectacular as that one. Franco Ontarians, for example.
