Yeah but rural albertans will no doubt vote for the dumb option because that’s how they roll. We really needed Calgary and Edmonton to carry a big lead into this evening.

The municipalities have until next Monday to report their numbers to the province, so we won't get the final numbers until then, but hopefully we'll get a projection sooner than that if we can get the numbers from the bigger cities.

I don’t support the vision for Inglewood. As a single family home owner, who was drawn to Inglewood early in my time here, I don’t agree with the way it’s being developed, for the most part. I don’t believe the 17th Ave ‘upgrade’ was well executed. The entire industrial area northeast of the Blackfoot/CP rail will be owned by one company.

More than that, the people I’ve heard who have truly been working closely with council share a common complaint about him, and I think most of that crowd supported Naomi. That says something to me, though I take it with a grain of salt.

And it’s not NIMBYism to not support every purposes development. The Y shelter/residence, Sherrif King and its expansion, and supportive housing are all within spitting distance and I don’t know anyone who opposed those. I’ve been out there at 2 am with people in crisis. I’ve been the guy on the phone with DOAP, Alpha, AHS, trying to get someone to help these people out. But hey, we have a funky bus line and drunken party bikes rolling down 9th Ave.

That’s certainly not all on GCC. Ward 9 is a hell of a complex area, but I don’t see a trend in a particularly positive direction.

Does anyone know which of the school board trustees are pro-UCP curriculum and how many of them are winning?

Old people don't want changes.

Ward 10 potential is so untapped. Hopefully Chabot does more than Roy Jones did in getting investment into the communities there.

A sandbag with googly eyes placed in an office chair would be able to do more than Ray Jones did for his past 3 terms.

Ray Jones was basically elected on the ‘Rundle Ray’ nickname and his proclivity for wearing Stamps jerseys

Chu's lead widens -- ####.

Carra wins by 158 votes.

Why spend million dollars a year to add it to water that will mostly be flushed down the toilet, showered away, used as dishwasher or to water lawns?

The dosage one gets from water cannot be controled. People who drink a lot of water increases the risk of flurosis.
