I would be extremely surprised if this goes to trial. Nenshi is not stupid and will not push his luck on this. He knows he said something he should not have said. I am sure he will apologize voluntarily to avoid being told to apologize by the court. His political purposes have been served well. Wenzel literally gave him a plate full of gold and Nenshi used it without hesitation to his fullest advantage during the election campaign. That's politics and Wenzel should have known better than to say things he said publicly. As I said earlier, homebuilders in Calgary historically were always apolitical and they should have stayed that way letting the developers lobby and do the "politicking".
