You would never hear this kind of language from a Bloomberg, Tory or Giuliani.
Instead of being dismissive and disrespectful, why not be constructive and positive?

Dude, your bias is showing. I don't think Nenshi disrespected the owners. Calgary Next went public with their plan to come up with a plan and had essentially very little answers to questions posed to nearly everything. He was probably asked by a reporter "Do you think this plan is half baked or what?" and answered based on the metaphor presented.
And I'd like to see this project move forward in one form or another.
