I'm glad Nenshi is smarter than that and won't let them hold the city hostage.

The home builders have zero interest in what's best for the city and only what's best for their pocket books.

I have no issue with him standing up to the developers. I take issue in how he did it. Very juvenile. There was nothing added to the discussion in making comments about Avi's family dinners. Not becoming of a mayor of a city like Calgary. The thing is, this isn’t the first time he has acted this way. When Nenshi gets upset he acts like a spoiled little girl in the media. The guy needs to demonstrate more professionalism.
