He’s very popular in his ward. My mother-in-law was astonished when she heard I wasn’t a fan. I was the first person she’d ever met out of her friends, neighbours, and family who doesn’t love the guy. My mom and her friends and neighbours are the same.

They love him because he responds promptly to their requests and acts as an advocate on their behalf. That sort of responsive ground game is what a lot of people at the municipal level of politics want from a representative.
