I tell you one thing....I became a very interested member of the Ward 12 Electorate this long weekend. A few days ago, I didn't know one candidate from another and only recognized their names from the many signs in the ward. I was a bit apathetic about the election, but that changed suddenly.
I've always liked this site and lurked often. I am a rabid Flames fan (my current avatar is a scan of some Playoff tickets from 1989...."If Necessary" for Game 4 at the Dome). Of course, it wasn't necessary.
Anyhow, hope to get involved more with this site. Should be an interesting year for the boys.
Back to Ward 12, I met Al Browne and Shane Keating in person. I have also gone back and forth with Roger Crowe and Ben Sim on many occasions now. I am supporting Keating. He showed me that he's a man of scruples and integrity. I get good vibes from Crowe and Sim too.
Let's just say that Browne didn't make a good "first impression".

Needless to say, Al "The Bully" Browne doesn't have my vote.
I look forward to being a part of the CalgaryPuck community.
