A big positive for Nenshi is he has never chased money. Personal wealth does not appear to be his motivation. His Harvard degree earned him a plush appointment with an international consulting company which would, if he stuck with it, lead to mega bucks. Instead he came back to Calgary, and became a professor. He wrote a book on how to make cities in Canada better.
He is following his passion, and that showed in his campaign. He may or may not succeed as Calgary's mayor, but he's not doing it for personal wealth, of that I'm certain.
