He hadn’t been contemplating seeking the Alberta NDP leadership but added “I have been listening to a lot of pitches from party members and other Albertans.”

    Interesting, and not entirely surprising. I don’t think he should, though.

    Nenshi needs to skip Alberta politics entirely, and get into the federal party. The Alberta NDP needs a straight, white male leading it in order to unseat the UCP. There are too many “moderate” (HAH!) voters in this province who don’t like the idea of a brown man in power, let alone one who is embedded in the LGBTQ2+ community.

    I’m thinking that Joe Ceci may be the best person for the job, although he’s not who I would personally like to see leading the party.

      It’s not even so much that we need a male straight person to knock off the UCP, as it is we don’t need smug condescending people who talk’s down to the population. Nenshi was unbearable his last term, and that’s coming from someone who voted for him. If a brown LGBTQ2+ is the best person to govern, and a strong leader, they should step forward. Unless their last name is Nenshi.
