1) It's Sunday morning, what are you having for breakfast? Scrambled Eggs, Hash Browns and OJ
2) If you didn't do what you do for a living, what would you be? Alderman of Ward 14 (hello?)... if that answer isn't allowed, professional beach volleyball player
3) Who's your hero? Anyone who puts their life on the line to protect others
4) What's one DVD you had to buy? Spaceballs (can't go wrong for $5 at Walmart)
5) Dogs or cats? Dogs
yep. now I can vote. go Calgary sun. the Fox news of Calgary.
The Herald isn't much better. They ran a profile on each ward where they mentioned what they thought were the main issues (for my ward they discussed 2 issues - the west LRT which is a done deal, and the ring road which is a provincial responsibility). Then they listed each candidate, and instead of providing something useful like where they stand on any of the issues, they just provided their marital status and how many kids they have.
