Btw, I'm also glad we have another thread to discuss this topic in. We were getting dangerously low on arena threads.

Lets not wrap Nenshi in some hero blanket and canonize him as the all saint of mayors.
He's a guy that pretty much picks fights to pick fights and blusters to bluster.
What was the point of him coming out with rhetoric like he did.
The Owners of the Flames have built massive businesses in this city and employed thousands and donated millions to various causes and Nenshi basically once again opened his big mouth and really bought this whole thing into the public forum in a negative way.
The Flames have generated millions of dollars to this city in terms of taxes and other things.
Sometimes I think he'd be more effective if he had a filter between his brain and his big mouth.
He doesn't always have to be the loudest guy in the room.
He really took the first step in making this something that's now a negative.
