You don't like the guy, you don't like the job he's doing fine but suggesting all he's done is win a popularity contest shows a disgusting lack of ignorance, especially when there are things you can hammer him on.

While I would say the whole flood thing was a bit contrived, you cannot mistake the fact that Nenshi and similarly minded councillors have led Calgary to a much more impressive downtown area with a great mix of commercial, residential areas. We wouldnt be talking about a downtown arena without this shift in policy thinking.
