Wiebe is okay, but lacks relevant experience and is attached to communities first party. She repeats a lot of those points, which seems inauthentic to me.
Schmidt seems authentic and genuine and aligns with my urbanist preferences. But I think in a lot of ways he reminds me of Walcott, where I'm not sure hes actually going to be responsive to constituent issues who aren't ideologically aligned with him.
I'm torn between Schmidt and Hehr. I wonder if they split a lot of votes and wiebe comes up the center.

I’m not sure who I’ll be voting for in Ward 8 yet
I won’t be voting for Hehr because of his baggage.
I will have a closer look at Schmidt
Any thoughts about Gary Bobrovitz? He finished 2nd to Walcott in 2021
