If a higher profile conservative candidate enters the race, like Bratina, than we could have a 2014 election along over again, where Centrist Fred may or may not be or to squeak out a win. That where things get wild with strategic voting and higher turnout in suburban/rural wards that may not have an incumbent and have higher turnout.

Who wants to take bets that if Loomis doesn’t win he’ll pull a McHattie and leave town?
You do realize that Fred is the Conservative in the group, he actually ran for the Conservatives. Bratina is the Liberal, an actual elected member of the Liberal party.
