    I’ve been to Calgary. If there’s a war on cars there, the cars are definitely winning.

    To think that we could have more progressive councillors if the more progressive types didn’t misread the moment and run as a municipal party.

    The success of certain candidates was largely because of a rejection on the new municipal party system the provincial government put in place, and independent candidates faired much better than those aligned with a party.

    Genuinely think had it not been for the terrible arena deal that Gondek would likely still be mayor. Farkas may not be the best, but honestly I’m just glad he seems to be a genuine guy and that we avoided Sonya Sharp.

    Cars always get considered first, how could there be a war on cars? Is this like the war on Christmas where there isn’t actually one but entitled people who want all of the considerations to be only for them think that they’re being persecuted so they claim it’s real?
