Well the meeting was to run for mayor, so it basically was to take control of the city

Thing is I voted for Nenshi and happily so. I wouldn't have voted for whoever Wenzel and his cronies came up with, so its somewhat irrelevant. But I also see the other side here...its not illegal to have a meeting and say "let's get people elected who agree with us and will vote the way we want". That's what politics is actually. There's nothing terrible in that thought.

I still laugh at the "secret" meeting. What was secret? That only some people were invited? Oh, the horror. I guess I've sat in on some similar "secret" meetings and they're not that exciting.
