I think only Thiessen (Calgary Party) and Sharpe (Communities First).
I am surprised Larry Heather didn’t make up a party, but alas, also independent.

I don't see it going the other way that much.

Everyone needs to visit his website and witness its majesty. I imagine if you gave a pre teen kid $50 and an afternoon to work on a website it would look better than this toilet smear.
If you look at his (for some reason) alphabetically labelled list A-I he missed the letter F.

I've seen McLean signs out for at least a month.

I see Cu isn't in yet, but the last day is Sept 22 and I wouldn't be surprised if he waited until then to throw in.

I don't especially like Gondek but if that's who I need to vote for to keep Farkas out of office then I am all in.
