If my company was trying to influence me to vote in a particular way, I would ask at what point did my employer turn from paying me a salary into a lobby group paying me a salary.
I would tell them to go stick it. Who I vote for is none of their business.
The mere fact that a corporation is trying to influence my decision is atrocious at worst and unethical at best. I hate when business, or any other outside influence gets in the way of the democratic process. I really do.
Regarding the subsidy, suburban home owners better get the lube ready, because once Nenshi gets re-elected and Council axes the development subsidy, the developers are just going to pass the cost back onto the consumers. No question. Even if it didn't get passed, the rest of us are lubing up anyways as we speak. Either way, Calgarians are going to get the lube job, subsidy or no subsidy.
