Not sure where the best place to put this is, but apparently Councillor Joe Magliocca is lobbying City Council to give Shane Homes an anniversary plaque for their philanthropy over the years. Seems like an unusual request by a councillor who Wenzel backed in years past?

Looks like it was turned down. And Nenshi's response after the meeting:

“Every council member needs to remember they work for citizens, that they ought not to be lobbying for individual organizations, whether it’s in terms of applications before council or whether it’s for lobbying them for this sort of recognition,” the mayor said.

And, of course, Sean Chu agrees:

@CBCScott: Magliocca calls on City to recognize Shane Homes for its philanthropy... $48 m over a number of years.
