Of course she did. "Big Red" is the epitome of shortsighted NIMBYism, any chance she has to grand stand on something that'll save her constituents (sadly of which I'm one) a penny or two she's gonna do. Maybe she could go back to chasing down low income Calgarians selling their bus passes for an extra $10-20 a month.
God I hope she chooses to run against Nenshi this fall, just so she get's thrown out and put an end to her pointless & misguided grandstanding.
