Of course McLean voted against all the reasonable amendments for the surplus money use. I apologize on behalf of Ward 13 for this guy.

They will be voting on the budget shortly. It is broken into eight parts, so eight separate votes.

She better watch herself or she'll be getting a knock on her door from some "legitimate businessmen" wearing Vladidas tracksuits.

If he doesn’t resign before he gets his pension, I hope the province removes him the day before he becomes eligible.

Can the recall legislation be used on him, or is it still 99% finished, but not a law?

Recall legislation sounds good when you're in opposition and think people are all angry about the government.

It doesn't sound as good when you're in government and realize that people hate you too, especially when you look around and realize your caucus is full of a bunch of useless idiots as well.

Looks like it came into force April 22nd so you are good to go.

40% is not a possible number to achieve in 60 days though

Ya, with 46% voter turnout for Calgary last election, 40% is basically impossible.

OK, thinking plan B here....anyone know some favourable Russians we can get in touch with?

His pension should come out of the police budget every year. By protecting him, they allowed a predator to escape punishment and gain power. It should be on them to pay, it's the very least they can do.
