Results coming in for Calgary Mayoral Election. Incumbent Mayor Naheed Nenshi, famous for being the only openly gay Muslim mayor in North America, faces serious opposition from business friendly conservative Bill Smith. Any predictions from Sup Forums
Nenshi is fucked im pretty sure lineups were so long.
Hudson Roberts
Nenshi isn't openly gay, you moron
Joseph Sullivan
Nenshi will win by a hair.
Like, close enough that the free transit tickets in the voting package will be enough to make the switch.
Don't expect final results for days.
Ian Ortiz
hope he loses.
Luis Foster
I live in a city outside Calgary, I wish i could have voted.
Oliver Sanders
why does alberta have both a muslim mayor and a socialist government
Jacob Brown
Who /Ward 11/ here?
Levi Rogers
To be fair, he is the best kind of Muslim > An Ismaili, the chillest form of Islam > Sunnis and Shias alike want him dead, so he has no time for extremists > Probably a queer, so he won't breed another sixty of them > Devotedly secular > Profound belief in his community, clearly loyal to Calgary > Talented, having gone to a gifted school, aced the LSAT, gone to Harvard, been a student's union president, and worked at McKinsey before returning to Calgary to become a professor and then the mayor like I get that people don't like that he's a shitskin and a mudslime but if they were all like him, they'd be /ourguys/ and not a menace
Nicholas Cruz
Actually it's the opposite kind of muslim which is /ourguy/ since they both attack the publics confidence in immigration by being terrorists and they are also deeply anti semitic.
Chase Rodriguez
How does a place like that elect a brown faggot? Seriously, are white people just self-loathing in all aspects?
Juan Mitchell
The only place more cucked than Ontario is Alberta.
Landon Carter
The socialist government was the result of the Conservatives pissing people off so badly that we wanted a change and didn't really think they would do anything. Nenshi ran a good social media campaign and Calgary is full of hipsters and immigrants.
Carson Anderson
he is a necessary evil at the moment to protect the tax payer from the NHL jew. Edmonton already got raped.
Elijah Walker
>progressive conservative party True north strong
Jonathan Myers
split right wing vote, lurk moar eastern fag
Elijah Hill
My prediction: Calgary in 20 years is exactly like Detroit nowadays
Carter Perez
Kek lmao
Jaxson Morris
cause Alberta is based
BC is NDP btw
Lincoln Cooper
I predict when whites finally become a minority blue jays will be playing cricket because they will find baseball too white and shit and to make muslims feel better. Hahahhahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha
Christian Murphy
God.......I feel like every time I'm having to update the map to a more cucked version.....just...just stop.
Dominic Perez
NDP>>>>>>Liberals
Sebastian White
Let's see.....first race mixer leader......first non white leader....
Asher Morgan
SK will fall next to the based NDP.
Manitoba, Pallister was a mistake. He spends half the year on vacation in Costa Rica. He has 0 interest in the job.
Then again who gives a fuck about Manitoba.
Michael Richardson
sask will never go back to ndp, but i dont think the sask party will survive much longer with how fuck massively dumb theyve been the last year
the party old guard is bailing en masse because of scandals
Christopher Ross
Pallister may spend 10 months of the year on vacation- but as long as he keeps his immigrant tax in place then its all good.
Jeremiah Wright
It's called the democratic people's republic of Albertastan for a reason
Albertastan greatest country in the world! All other country are run by little girl!
Luke Butler
Brad Wall ditched the moment things got tough. Fucking conservashits every time.
NDP are already leading in a few polls. It's really early tho. I'm hoping there could be a snap election because the next premier will be unelected as leader but who knows that's doubtful. SP has huge majority
Conservatism or right wing politics is possibly in the shittiest spot in my life in Canada. We got Scheer as the PC leader. Just......this is like a joke. A round faced " nice guy " who will offend no one and just be muh tax cuts. I didn't put Bernier on my ballot because he came out against supply management but at least he has some edge to him. Now we got Scheer.
Chase Thompson
Albertastan number one exporter of petroleum all other country have dirty ass petroleum
Albertastan! Albertastan! you very nice place from glorious tar sands to ruins of Fort Macmurray
David Perez
u got King Cuck as PC leader
the funniest thing is gunna be watching all these cucks who claim to be redpilled and based vote for a literal cuck like scheer
Isaac Turner
brad wall ditched because he himself can be implicated in most of these scandals
theyre all crooks, ndp are no different
Jayden Jackson
If they vote for the Muslim they deserve bad things
Zachary Miller
Texas of Canada. LOL
Caleb Richardson
As a former Calgarian, I still expect Nenshi to win. He's been very popular in the past, and Calgary is probably more left now that before. That said, people are much angrier than before too.
this But also the conservatives really cucked themselves hard over controversial spending (ie spending government money on private trips) and fucked us over with debt after we were the only debt free province.
Jordan Evans
Hopefully he reveals a bit of edge. When I watched the PC debates I only watched Kellie Leitch and Maxime Bernier so I hardly know anything about Scheer other than he thinks Rebel Media is too " far right " which is one of the cuckiest things ever.
Mason James
Albertastan! Economy best in world! Without our oil cash we would collapse!
Albertastan cities safest in fhe region except for maybe Surrey BC!
Albertastan! Albertastan! You very nice place from glorious tar sands to ruins of Fort Macmurray
Come see our biggest and most glorious city descend into chaos and war like Detroit!
Adrian Taylor
Great, they'll crash the economy in record time just like the last time, and we'll get another 3 or 4 conservative/sask party governments
Austin Scott
their lowest ever unemployment was under based Liberal Paul Martin in 2006. Notice how when Harper opened the TFW floodgates, their unemployment rate never fell to those previous low levels, then oil went to shit in 2015
Anthony Howard
I mean, we got double fucked from 2008 crash and oil crash, but we are still probably the comfiest province, and that's just really sad.
Gabriel Myers
You just made an Alberta version of the borat anthem youtube.com/watch?v=CvZxVubqERk didn't you? We're not that bad yet lmao
Carson Jackson
>prairie >comfy Mountains are where it's at
Kevin Cox
Paul Martin had nothing to do with unemployment rates in Alberta. A Literally Who PM.
Easton Parker
We got a few. But I agree, that's where I'm headed when shtf.
Jacob Wilson
yes he did
Brayden Lee
He's gay? Huh.
Jose White
Please name at least one economic policy he enacted that lowered Alberta's unemployment.
Gavin Howard
not flooding the country with immigrants and TFWs
David Rodriguez
Don't post, drink more Mr. Farkas
Jaxson Peterson
Looks like Nenshi's got it.
The only factor that might make the race closer is skewed interim results towards downtown and more diverse wards. But unfortunately the results website isn't updating the counts by ward at all so I have no idea where they're coming from.
Thomas Sanchez
The example you give is of something that he DIDN'T do? In other words he changed nothing. How then is that something he accomplished?
Try again?
Isaiah Taylor
You would never get a thread for Montreal, Quebec, Ottawa or even Vancouver. This just proves that this board is chock full of eternally crippled butthurt Albertans who need to vent their hatred and edge over everything.
T. Quebec. A place more conservative than you could ever hope to be.
Landon Watson
I gave you something that he did to. It's called immigration policy u fucking retard.
Do u seriously not understand how Harper flooding the country with TFWs and immigrants raises unemployment?
Christian Howard
Also just in case you need a clear picture
1. Garbage 2. Jean Chretien 3. Trudeau 4. Martin 5. Harper
Juan Wood
Did he send them back? If not, then I can't see how it really accomplished anything. They were already here.
Plus it was already low. He lowered it from 4% to 3.5%.
So goooood.
Zachary Roberts
1. Joe 2. Jean Chretien 3. Trudeau 4. Martin 5. Harper
Maybe next time they should try running a real conservative instead of a stuffed shirt development industry mouthpiece, then If you think that Bill Smith et al wouldn't mean a return to the bad old days of Calgary's existing residents (primarily white) heavily subsidizing home building for newcomers (primarily not), you're nuts
Jayden Carter
That bus rapid transit is being built.
Go back to your "open" relationship, Mr. Farkas.
Connor Roberts
>needing transportation infrastructure Heh. I see you wagie.
Logan Williams
Not Vancouver specifically but we have BC threads here all the time (and they're usually pretty comfy)
