That wasn't really fair on my part, you're right. I should have said "mayor protecting taxi cartels". I know I've for sure read comments about Nenshi's cultural background likely playing a part in being so defensive of the taxi industry, but only a couple and I don't even know if it was on CP.
Even if it was, it's not enough for me to make a comment like that, it takes away from the discussion. My bad.
