One wonders, however, why Druh seems to be targeted for so much more hate and vitriol than other members of council with similar views, like Woolley, Carra, and Pincott. Excluding Nenshi, Farrell receives more threats of violence than all other members of council combined.

weird how the Councillors that whose constituents are "latte sippers" are the ones getting all the death threats...?
appears to me its the non-latte sippers that are actually the threat to governance and democratic process...
would not be shocked whatsoever if this "Save Calgary" drivel attracts the same fanatics who wail on 'wasted tax dollars' for 500k on public art but do not bat an eye at 78 million dollar interchanges or billion dollar ring roads...
but, but... PEACE BRIDGE!
