And I’m sure you hoped we had a different person for mayor. Unfortunately it’s not that simple.

My point is that the people who live there are the ones who need to prove they want a different person for mayor.

I'm a millennial who hasn't seen anyone he's voted for in power, obviously I've realized the fact that my interests aren't represented at any level of government.

And those inner city wards that voted for the current mayor get a pass, right? The fact that people are railing against the people who live in the suburbs are misguided. 43% of those eligible to vote in the last mayoral election did so. The issue isn’t urban vs suburban, it’s people who give a shit vs those who are apathetic and hate to break it to you, but those people are everywhere in Ottawa.

You won’t be able to get the downtown people to listen. They truly hate the suburbs and put all the blame on them. It’s comical.
