Main pet peeves:

- cyclists
- festivals
- gay people
- "Orientals" (his word)
- immigrants

As near as I can tell, he's a caricature of what people think of when they think of a typical Calgary politician crossed with a Tea Bagger.

Wow. Thanks for the summation. My condolences to any Torontonians reading along here.

I was listening to CBC at work today about how people in Toronto were envious of Calgarians for having a choice such as Nenshi - according to the talking head who's name didn't register, the TO race was down to Ford vs. a "I'm not Ford" platform. I'd have never thought in my wildest dreams that Torontonians would be envious of the politicians available out here, no matter what level of politics we are talking.
