Are you serious? For real...

A group of some of the more powerful people in Calgary want to subvert civic politics to suit their bottom-line and you resort to criticizing one of the only voices at City hall speaking against this.

Pathetic.

This Video is a completely separate thing. Probably should be a separate thread.

I re-edited thread title.... scum was a harsh word.

Lobbies are one of the most important and ######ed things in politics today.

I just put it here since it seemed to be related to the ongoing City/Developer friction.

I'm loving the xenophobic conversation in the comments. Honestly, the Mayor is addressing a massive conflict of interest.
