SO NOT HAPPY.... we are being OVER RUN by the middle east..... now before you accuse me of being "racist".... think about it... look at the battle in NYC regarding the Mosque.... would AMericans vote in Nenshi?? Hell No.... this is a disaster waiting to happen NICE JOB CALGARY... although somehow i blame the NE (unfortunatly where I live not for long though ) the one year they decide to come out by the dozens.... I didnt want McIver in there but this was the last thing I wanted!!! I can only image the special treatment for "his people" in this city.... Ugh i swear I am going to throw up
Apparently we should ask WWAD (What Would America Do)

@innersoul1: maybe the that chick in red he has been forced to talk with all night is rubbing off on him. You can tell this is not her desired result.


I am going to take a shot everytime Ric blinks during his concession speech.

So now that Calgary has itself a new mayor, could someone provide an introduction of him for the benefit of the rest of us out-of-towners?

Counted turnout at 34%.

And McIver is upset you can tell from his voice.

At least that's not as bad as Harry Reid saying that Obama is a black man "but at least he doesn't have a negro dialect".
