    Isn't this right out of Nenshi's playbook, float a huge tax increase and then take the hero credit when council "works to whittle it down to 4%" or some BS like that?

    "We crunched the numbers, council will only take an 8% salary increase in these next 2 years so your taxes stay lower at 4.3%.“
