Kind of a gamble by Nenshi as well since who is he to just challenge people to a one on one debate in a an election consisting of 15 candidates?

I think to ultimately win he needs to gamble and come out ahead. From reading the papers, listening to radio, watching local news, etc. it seems that if you're from a demographic that isn't paying attention to alternative media you would get the impression that the race comes down to Barb Higgins vs. Ric McIvor. He wants to establish himself as the challenger to Ric McIvor by proving that Higgins is unfit to be mayor with enough time in the campign to tar and feather McIvor as representing the old dysfunctional council.
