Nenshi should have known better.

I'd be incredibly surprised if 90% of the participants in this thread, the members of the Sun editorial board, Sun News commentators, staff, producers and Ezra Levant himself don't know the reference.
The few in these groups that aren't familiar are also likely to stick around for a round of responses and come to learn the meaning of "when did you stop beating your wife?"
Acknowledged is the fact that it is a charged statement, but that's exactly why it's a well-known go-to comeback and has been since long before Levant and Nenshi were even born.
Why are some playing dumb?
