Coun. Diane Colley-Urquhart comes out guns blazing and adds another layer of intrigue to this whole deal.
Quote:
“Bronco always had a way of getting deals done. He’d get ‘er done,” says the veteran councillor, slamming Nenshi’s “vacuum of leadership.”
“You’re measured by what your outcomes are, not on a bunch of talk and useless closed-door meetings about nothing and letting things stagnate.”
“There’s no evidence the mayor ever felt a new facility was needed. He’s never been in favour of it.”
“If you start out from that view two years ago you’re not going to get far when it comes to being genuinely engaged in a negotiated deal.”
“It’s disgraceful. It’s such an affront to the owners of the Flames and what they’ve contributed to this city. It’s really embarrassing.”
“Where there’s a will, there’s a way. But it’s obvious to me after two years there’s no will.”
Colley-Urquhart says there are “many moving parts to what this deal could look like.”
