In the quote below, the provincial funding deal portion of the quote seems in alignment with your statement. However, the quote also implies he wants to get implement a city sales tax. If not, what is his idea for his new revenue generating powers? That screams new tax?

Nenshi would definitely try to implement a new sales tax if the provincial government would allow it. With the PCs and especially the Wildrose in power I would say their would be no chance, but with the NDP I really don't know how they would feel about it. They would probably want to implement their own sales tax in addition to it.
