Calgary also has a Muslim mayor, who is extremely popular. I do see your point, I have lived in Calgary for over 25 years and it is a far different city today then even 10 years ago.
Not just Muslim, but a brown urban policy geek! It's a point of local pride that we got him while Toronto got Rob Ford; imagine what a fiasco the reverse would have been.
Heh. Nice try! But no, orders of magnitude worse. Which international media sensation did Klein set off?
It's true that Klein obliged the Toronto stereotype of the redneck Albertan (and, shrewd politician that he was, used it to score points with his base). That's one reason it's so poetically fitting that you all elected Rush Limbaugh crossed with Marion Barry.
Calgary?
