Nenshi's last term showed voters his arrogance, and also showed his true character. He is the most condescending piece of crap when it comes to not getting his way on something. And he got his way on many things, such as handing the billionaires their precious arena 2.5 seconds after running on a mandate of doing the opposite, and we just barely dodged that Olympic bullet he was trying to shoot into our heads.

If this guy runs for the NDP, and wins, the UCP will have a heydey with it. It'll pretty much guarantee that the next decade + will be a slam dunk UCP cakewalk.

He needs to fuck off back to academia, and stay out of this mess. He has nothing to offer here. The NDP actually needs to get their shit together, or they need to splinter into a new party that runs on a hard centre mandate, that actually aligns with the vast majority of Alberta's population, and not a religious fanatic minority. I'm personally pushing pretty hard for a rebranding, it's time to ditch the NDP association and to get real with what needs to be done here. Ain't saying it isn't a load of nonsense, it is, but it's what needs to be done to put an end to this UCP nightmare. Nenshi ain't going to do that for us. Fuck he lost to Jyoti Gondeck for crying outloud, who is solidly in the running for the world's most useless politician.
