I'm in Ward 2 and I didn't vote for this loser who IMO has a pretty bad record.

He voted against reducing wage increase:

He was one of the responsible member of Enmax board:

He is abscent on votes that are career minefields

Nenshi keep him around as budget boss, what did he do? He is against all the cuts every step of the way.

Nenshi wants a tunnel, and you can guess where Gord stands:

Now comes the latest petty complain:
http://www.calgaryherald.com/entertainment/Nenshi+defends+decision+accept+architecture+firm+flight/4253431/story.html?cid=megadrop_story

He is trying a diversion tactic since Enmax is a shit show under his watch. It's dirty, uncalled for and show him that he lacks the understanding of what business ethics is all about. Comparing a F1 Monaco trip to a speaking engagement? That's desperate. Where the fuck was he when Bronco spent $10K to go to London, England?

People of Ward 2, please try harder to vote this fucker out next time.

he's always been a spineless coward, and the fact that he hides from every sensitive topic is the only reason he's still in office, he simply hasn't pissed anyone off... directly.

he voted for the landfill expansion and saving race city. :nut:

I believe Rick Bell calls him "Bronco with a beard". I voted against him. He won by a small margin, again. I am a believer that Ward2 was redrawn to not include Edgemont because it was well known that Edgemont was extremely dissatisfied with him. So it was done to help him get reelected.

He's also on the Enmax board. :)

I'm not a huge fan of him either - but he WAS voted in. That's how democracy works - love it or hate it. So we have him for at least another... what is it... 3 years?

See Hampstor's post. It's was close margin and exclude the community that hated him.
