I voted for Nenshi. I've been directly paying property taxes in Calgary since I bought my home in 2007 and indirectly for the five years prior to that when I lived in an apartment (my landlord paid property taxes from a portion of the rent money he collected from me).
Regardless of what you want to believe, the vast majority of Nenshi's supporters are not unemployed loafers who want to get a free ride at your expense.
