          He was popular enough to be their mayor until he decided not to run for a fourth term, and Calgary has generally not been adverse to voting NDP before, so I’d say its Nenshi’s race to lose.

            And for reference, It’s basically a 3-part game in Alberta, with each area getting an equal share of the seats. Edmonton, which always will vote NDP, Calgary, and everything else which will mostly go UCP but can see an actual competition in places like Red Deer and Lethbridge.

          I mean, she was very close (1300 votes) to losing the last election against not-Nenshi, and without any scandals. It’s far from a longshot.

      The Conservatives need to step up and oust her yesterday.

      Seriously, they want to win so hard they’re willing to sell our country out, but they refuse to acknowledge that denouncing this would show actual leadership and win back a bunch of the shift toward the Liberals.

      I mean, in the grand scheme it’s better for Canada for the Conservatives to fuck up and lose, but it’s still not clear enough that will happen. Somehow, there’s still enough Canadians who support these fuckups.
