korzym- you're right, the electorate is packed with selfish, xenophobic short-sighted people with NIMBY suburban (in the worst sense) values. The fact that McIver panders to them and provides no vision of this city and no ideas aside from "give me MINE MINE MINE" and shits on anything urban or urbanist makes him a filthy politician. It makes him electable, you're right, a disgusting example of a populist POLITICIAN.

This doesn't make him a good alderman.
