Mr. Nenshi talked about his three points of successful government and was generally vague overall. He speaks very well and is quick on his toes and I would like to hear him speak more.

A quick note: Nenshi also wants to ditch the $3 parking fee.

Nenshi is definitely not representing himself well if he's coming across as vague. His policy platform very well defined, especially compared to some of the other candidates.
http://www.nenshi.ca/new/policy Note that each policy is a link, which takes you to an overview of his ideas on that topic, which is supported by a PDF with even more detail.
Kudos for making the effort to attend and get informed!
