If Nenshi actually did say ‘99.999997 percent’, that was hyperbolic
and fake news.
That number means that only 1 in 33,333,333 calls and emails have not expressed disapproval of the project. I would be staggered if the city had received 33 million comments on the topic, and still more so if only
one of them was in favour of public money for an arena.
Of course the mayor is a politician and therefore a liar. But I find it dismaying that people still lap up his lies when he does not even take any trouble to make them plausible.
