She is such a bad look for our city.

Regarding Nann & Kroetsch campaigning with her, and even showing up at the event last night. How is that not a conflict of interest? Like, I understand they are free to vote and be part of whichever political party they choose. But to be campaigning during the working day, when they're supposed to be working at city hall seems like an issue. Also, they're supposed to be representatives of all citizens of the ward. But they openly bash conservatives. Not good. Also, those two are effectively running as councillors under a defacto NDP banner. Political parties are banned at the municipal level, so i'm not really sure how that's acceptable.

She got elected with 54% of the vote in a riding with some of the most affluent areas of the city. Stop being a drama queen. Conservatives are always crying wolf. Oh and politicians no matter the party can support anyone they want on or off the "clock". This is a democracy and the only thing that dictates what politicians can or cannot do is the voting public during elections.
