Unfortunately found myself stuck in traffic on Memorial Drive last friday afternoon - saw a few folks holding a banner over the Bridgeland LRT pedestrian overpass - "STOP PERVERTS" (protect our kids, anti-trans, etc. etc.) and noticed a few "Recall Gondek" signs bouncing around them. Quelle Surprise that the recall overlaps with the anti-vax/f-trudeau/groomer/conspiracy crowd. Definitely a lotta overlap there - any bets on Craig Chandler showing up as a driving force behind this recall?

Right wing people want to recall the left wing mayor?

Slow news day?

[XylathaneGTR]

Well, I'm glad they've cast a big tent and found a way to incorporate some DEI!

[suntan]

Lots of us visible minorities signing the recall.

Y'all realize it's the fucking rich white people that keep voting in dicks like Nenshi and Gondek right?

Ward 7 must be full of honkies then since Druh Ferrell kept getting voted in.

Women like that are the first to call "a spade a spade" because they act like they've earned their lifestyle and can say whatever they want. They don't 'think of the children', they think about how it impacts them or their kids only.

You Calgary people are all the same, don’t kid yourselves.

I also got a kick outta this piece:

Thirty-six of Calgary’s 37 mayors have been men, 35 of them white. Calgarians lack experience with female leadership and non-white leaders, especially when those leaders not only deviate from the prescribed norms but consistently challenge the status quo.

Her gender, race, and religion make no bearing on my opinion whatever. My issue with her is the fact that she's straight up doing a shit job, not because brown, a broad, and whatever her religion is. I don't think anyone here cares about that to be honest.

Anyone who has ideas like spending $300k to put a dirt berm across memorial, or sending money to Quebec for some religious oppression horse shit would be facing the same critisism regardless of the bits between the legs or colour of their skin.

It's perplexing how, apparently, a group of people could be "racist misogynists" when it comes to our Mayor and her shit KPI while also being dirty rednecks because they support Danielle Smith.

Pick a lane.

The only worthwhile and worthy humans vote left of centre, and anyone who votes centre or ***gasp*** centre-right are evil destroyers of humanity. That's the nearrative. The adjective really doesn't matter to the message for them.
