Let's trust that this stressful, nail bitting election has taught a lesson to Mr. Nenshi,  who is ( in certain ways ...) a secular) Muslim, unafraid of rocking the boat,  talented, literate, educated to the nines. Mr. Nenshi is an all-inclusive  politician with a social conscience who has the bonhomie, the creative  knack of milking the gift of the - gab. The alternative to Mr. Nenshi would have given the city of Calgary to vested interests ready to expand Calgary like the suburbanite madness of "successful" Houston. Right. Let's  pave marshes, riverbeds, flood plains, let's built built chi chi, grandiose stadiums at tax payers' expenses - " that is the way to go," according to the "libertarian" cult. Go.
 

        Go Mr. Nenshi. Manner your hubris with societal, enlightened intention. Calgary needs you.
