Nenshi No More

So for the first time since I moved up here, the mayor of Calgary is not Naheed Nenshi.

The mayor is now Jyoti Gondek.

I don’t really no too much about her (I’m not allowed to vote up here as a Permanent Resident), but hopefully she’ll be good.

It’d be great if Nenshi ran for Premier, but I don’t know if non-city areas in Alberta would ever vote for him.

Meet Naheed Nenshi, Mayor of Calgary.

This dude is awesome.

He’s an alumnus of both University of Calgary and Harvard and was elected mayor in 2010. In 2013, he was ranked as the second most important person in Canada, after the Prime Minister.
It seems like the vast majority of Calgarians (and even people outside of Calgary) really like him.
Check out what he’s done.
Plus, he’s freaking hilarious:
