I want the NDP to win and hold for a while to fix a lot of the ideological bull#### the UCP have shoved down our throats. That said if the NDP were to win and only hold one term then my hope is that it gives the UCP a chance to shed the loonies and become a respectable party again.
Nenshi IMO will be respected in the cities, I feel he will be open to giving the cities their own charters which was a big thing he fought for while mayor and couldn’t get done. If he is in the captains chair this will probably be a big part of his tenure.
The way to winning rural folks is to show that he will curb stupid spending and put in back into education and health. People do not want to travel to get to a hospital/find a family doctor. People want their small schools to stay open in their small towns.
The current path is jeopardizing those things. Nenshi is no fool - I think he will have the ability to convey his ideas in an intelligent matter while eviscerating the UCP by pointing out their very visible warts.
