¡Viva la revolución púrpura!

Your vote matters, and here are some reasons why I've joined the Purple Revolution:


1. Positive Outlook: Nenshi doesn't dwell on negativity and focus on what CAN'T be done.



2. Ridiculously educated: Nenshi is obviously a professional. He has a world-class education in exactly what Calgary needs: new ideas and organizational reform.


3. Youth Support: Political involvement among my generation (and below) is extremely low. Nenshi will mobilize and engage younger Calgarians who have the most to gain from a better Calgary in the future.


4. Ric McIver: I'd rather have someone who worked to build consensus and tackle Calgary's issues rather than a professional naysayer.


5. Barb Higgins: From the outset her message of "Municipal politics is something I thought I'd try out" offended me. Calgary deserves more than a hobby mayor.
