So unless there have been more successful suits against the Mayor, it's one legitimate lawsuit to no frivolous lawsuits? The original post to which I responded stated that the Mayor was giving a ton of people legitimate grounds to sue him. If this was the case, would the score really be 1-0?

Nevertheless, the Mayor is rather confrontational but I think Calgary had gotten to a point where it needed a Mayor like Nenshi to push forward and break the negative resistance that would otherwise hold back positive progress.
