Everything else said already is true. I will also add, Nenshi is the only one with a business degree and REAL business experience. As someone who is studying for an MBA right now, I can attest that knowing things like Finance and Economics is essential to avoiding cost overruns like we have seen. It's not something a layman can get a full grasp of (It's harder than I though it would be) and I don't think Mciver or Higgins have the intellectual horsepower to learn on the job, let alone even know how to properly read and understand something as simple as a balance sheet. They will have to rely on what they are told, and that has lead to problem before, and will again if either of them are elected.

Maybe someone else with a business degree can chime in.
