All things considered not a bad day in Calgary politics

Both #MykeAtkinson (whom I was ECSTATIC to vote for) & #NathanSchmidt are good, smart dudes that care about the right things. I've had my issues with new mayor #JeromyFarkas but he's not #SonyaSharp & he's convinced some smart friends of mine & he can earn some trust with some good moves

Rule of thumb: when #RickBell is unhappy that's actually (usually) a good thing for Calgary

Remember when far right super-weirdo #JordanPeterson called out #JyotiGondek for daring to ask Calgarians to conserve water while the City fixed a critical infrastructure problem not of her making? And #RickBell attacked her every single day for it? I do. #VoteForJyoti #yyc #yyccc

A shout out to my fellow Calgarians that resisted #CalgaryHerald & #RickBell's craven daily incitements for rage in the face of adversity & instead stepped up with the same #CalgaryStrong can-do spirit of the 2013 floods. A proud day for all but the rage-farmers. #yyc #yyccc

There may be easier ways to lose an election but I confess Smith sure seems to be hitting as many of them as she can

#RickBell: #DanielleSmith says #AlbertaPensionPlan vote could be as early as May

A #referendum vote on whether the province should get out of the #CanadaPensionPlan and create an Alberta Pension Plan could come as early as the May provincial election."
