To think that we could have more progressive councillors if the more progressive types didn't misread the moment and run as a municipal party.

The success of certain candidates was largely because of a rejection on the new municipal party system the provincial government put in place, and independent candidates faired much better than those aligned with a party.

Genuinely think had it not been for the terrible arena deal that Gondek would likely still be mayor. Farkas may not be the best, but honestly I'm just glad he seems to be a genuine guy and that we avoided Sonya Sharp.
