Nenshi used social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc, etc) as a tool to get his message out. The people using twitter to express their upset with occupy Calgary are doing the same. Using it as a tool. So it does carry some weight.
As CaptainCrunch said, Nenshi is trying to be the "cool" mayor and just hoping these people go away. Reaching out to Nenshi, via social media, is the first step. It's probably the best way to get your message to him. He uses it all the time.
I thought it was pretty cool of him to reply and retweet about the Wannamaker thing, but now we have a real issue. He just won't step up. It's pretty obvious.
