Not only that but young people are also very moble in terms of what city they live in. If you're a married 40 something with kids, you're more likely to stay in Calgary over the long term and be a repeat voter than a single 20-something, an example of which is Muta's pledge to move away should McIver get elected. Therefore if you're a mayoral candidate not named McIver and you want his vote in 2013 you better get elected now in 2010!
