Yup but Nenshi isn't an elected official. Moreover, the community outcry while the police budget issue was being discussed seemed to suggest that most of Calgary did not want to see the CPS budget slashed.

If Nenshi's main goal was to point out flaws in the way the city manages it's money and the budget process itself that have at it - because I agree fully there appears to be some big flaws. But by using CPS as the example the issue has gone of course completely.
