I overheard my friend's dad say that he's voting for Diotte so he can "overturn that stupid arena".

I think Diotte will get a lot of votes, but depending on who is running against him, he could come in second or third if another candidate comes up the middle.

After all, back in 2004, everyone...

I would wager that after West Edmonton mall, Kingsway is consistently the most crowded mall in the city. It seems to never be *not* busy there.

We will lose the horse racing circuit to Calgary, who is pushing for the Balzac racing circuit (technically Rocky View County, but still).[/QUOTE]

I hope it's true, just because his entire mayor run has been like an episode of Family Guy. Every time I read a news story about Rob Ford it makes me think of a real-life Peter Griffin being mayor...

Mimi has run for public office before (unsuccessfully as a school trustee). She always has come across as a "space cadet" to me.

I suspect they will get most of them. I mean, if a concert act can expect 2000 extra paying customers at the new arena, why would they choose to perform at the smaller, older building?

And no matter how correct or incorrect your your guess is, it has absolutely nothing to do with Kerry Diotte, nor his ability as a city councillor or mayor.

I can't wait to see construction start, as I go past those large tracts of empty land every day on my way to and from work, and the deadness of the area is pretty soul-crushing.

I cross 111 Ave by the McDonald's regularly and it is a very safe place to cross, especially since they eliminated the turns from Kingsway Ave. 106 Street has almost no traffic at all, and...
