Many people compare Nenshi with Redford, based on the old-fashioned left/right spectrum. But I think this will finally show what the real lessons of Nenshi's election are. Calgarians are becoming more interested in competency and intelligence, not partisan ideology. And my impression of Redford is not one of competency.

A vertical political spectrum if you will - marked by competency, leadership ability, engagement, transparency, innovation etc.
