Has anyone actually said that? Calgarians were angry about the taxi industry long before Nenshi became mayor. If they seem angrier now, it's only because the dysfunctional system has persisted that much longer. And because it looks like we may finally have an alternative. Trying to make the issue into a Muslim thing is an ugly attempt at deflection.
