Question What ward to you live in?

I've requested a poll for this thread.

In the comments perhaps people can name what they feel is the prime issue in their ward and/or if they have decided who they are voting for.

Here's a map: http://content.calgary.ca/CCA/City+H...p/Ward+Map.htm

I have recently moved into the oddly shaped mess that is Ward 9. I'm not sure what the issues here are.

Too cool. I just put 2 & 2 together..... I watched your video the other day, (which I love BTW) since you aren't in it....I didn't realize it was you.

Good on you for running.

Not that I'm agreeing or disagreeing, but what does this have to do with this thread?

For those who are unsure (I had to check):
http://www.calgaryherald.com/story.html?id=3369015


I am in ward 12, and for me the most important issue is transportation.

1) improving existing roadways like 52nd St twinning and improving the Anderson/Canyon Meadows/Deerfoot Trail/Igor Strong bridge mess so Deerfoot isn't as much of a parking lot during rush hour.

2) Calgary Transit. First, optimizing the existing BRT/Feeder Bus/Express bus situation to improve transit times to the core. Then, getting the West leg done and starting on the SE leg asap.
