Basically four more years of the same old same old. Council will blame their ineffectiveness on <insert mayor's name here>. Yawn.
What we can expect to see in Hamilton politics over the next four years:
- Much to the relief of the provincial government, Eisenberger, after realizing LRT is not going to happen any time soon, will have a discussion with Toronto mayor John Tory about that Smarttrack concept he was selling during his campaign. Nothing will come of it and LRT will also derail the 2018 municipal election
- Olivia Chow, currently unemployed and bored, will pretend to be uninterested in replacing Andrea, then will replace her before the next provincial election
- Andrea Horwath, after being ousted as leader of the provincial NDP, will run for mayor of Hamilton in 2018
