Chu-ie and Nenshi get a little snippy at what should have been a pretty mundane committee meeting
Quote:
Chu: “I cannot help myself about the latest thing in Boston. Right away, the one word that popped into my mind is liability. There’s rumours flying everywhere about Uber is going do something.”
Nenshi: “You have to stop now. You have to stop now. You’re being inappropriate. You’re being inappropriate, and you have to stop.”
Chu: “I’m just asking the question.”
Nenshi: “You have to stop. You can’t talk about ongoing legal action in this forum. And by the way, there isn’t any…”
Chu: “The rumour…”
Nenshi: “Councillor Chu. As a councillor, you do not comment on rumours in a public forum.”
Chu: “You do that all the time.”
Nenshi: “Well, you shouldn’t. I know you do…”
Chu: “I have the floor. Thank you. Thank you very much chair. Are you done?”
Nenshi: “I am, but I will cut off your mic if you continue.”
Chu: “OK. Thank you. You know what? You should calm down a little bit.”
Nenshi: “Councillor Chu. I’m entirely calm. Please don’t ask me to call you to order.”
Chu: “You’re shaking.”
Nenshi: “Councillor Chu.”
Chu: “Yes?”
Nenshi: “Thank you very much for your medical advice. We’re moving on now to the next speaker.”
Chu: “I haven’t finished here.”
Nenshi: “I’m sorry. Councillor Pootmans please.”
Chu: “I haven’t finished…”
Nenshi: “I cut off your mic, I’m sorry.”
Chu: “I have the floor.”
Nenshi: “As the chair I have the right to call any member to order, and I’ve just done so. So, Councillor Pootmans please.”
Chu: “I challenge the chair.”
Nenshi: “Feel free. All in favour of the challenge?”
Only Chu voted in favour of his challenge, and the meeting continued without further incident.
