Of course, "move on" and his earlier statement "I'm a father of three daughters (barff) so sean chu should resign if the allegations are true" are two pretty difficult stances to square.

It's hard to imagine how many things he has wrong in these few statements.

But you probably thought that before all of this started.

Of course. Because I actually pay attention to how poorly he does his job.

Ward 7 Councillor who had 25% of the vote is sure off to a hot start.

As an FYI, Farkas is no longer on Council so the thread title could probably be updated.

As for who might replace him, I won’t say we’ve got a strong front runner emerging on Day 1 but…

I have only just now realized that this is a Transgressions "Threat" and not a "Thread"

We need a New Municipal Politics Mega Thread. Different than the four or so other threads created in an attempt to replace this one, but one to replace them all!

I made one. Some might say it was the most perfect thread ever. MF great, even. And where is it now? Halfway done the second page.


That being said, a separate threadthreat for Chu(and whoever steps up to join him) for their utter ridiculousness is worth keeping around.

That’s not how it works. A by-election would be required.

As repugnant as Chu is, PoliticsAlberta tends to throw a lot of unverified crap around.

I almost respect the fact that after all this time and even news stories being written about them, his greatest hits are still a part of his feed

It's made the news now, and he's officially trying to back track...

https://calgary.citynews.ca/2021/11/...nts-resurface/

Quote:
Not long after the post resurfaced, Chu apologized for the comment, saying in a statement to CityNews:

“I regret the comment unequivocally. The Muslim community in Calgary is made up of amazing people, many I call friends, who over the years have shown me their rich and vibrant culture, and that their faith like many others is one that shows compassion and forgiveness.

“I ask for their forgiveness today, in the hurt I have caused by this 2011 comment. I wish them to know that this is not who I am today at all and hope they can accept my sincere apology.”

It’s an apology Bukhari isn’t buying.
