Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi has taken another verbal shot at some anti-lockdown protesters, calling them "thinly-veiled white nationalist supremacists." Nenshi made the comment on this weekend's edition of the Global TV current affairs show, The West Block. “Those people at those anti-mask protests, let’s not kid ourselves. They’re not people who [are protesting because they] need to

    Taking a page from Jason Kenney’s playbook hey Neshi. Smoke in mirrors and misdirection. Say anything to steer the public from the terrible job you are two are doing

    Nenshi is 100% right although not policitally correct. The COVID protesters are right wing fanatics (both religious Christian nutters and white nationalists) with intellectual laziness and a childish conspiratorial mind that believes in exceptionalism because they are white and/or ‘Christian’. They can never follow the rules that others have to because their entitled attitude. They would love to see Covid spread and anarchy so that we can live in a white nationalist/ christian righty fascist regime. It’s even worse than Nenshi claims!

    Hey Mr. Nenshi….when you leave town can you pick up our esteemed mayor of Toronto and take him with you please…all these dictatorial mayors seem to think someone died and made them God…..terrible what a bit of power does to some people….

    This pompous windbag that calls himself the mayor is sickening. While he advocates for more police resources to harass church goers, the transit system in Calgary has become un-usable due to the preponderance of drunks and crackheads who go about unchecked. Have you ever noticed that whenever this unctuous glad-hander is winning, he refers to the city as a glowing beacon of tolerance and meritocracy, but as soon as anything points attention to his failures, he conveniently blames an apocryphal army of bigots that,according to him, lurk everywhere.

    he should be sued for libel …. to throw that hate out there de humanizing people humans who do not share the same desire for a authoritarian police state is dangerously close if not over the slander line…. wonder if there are some lawyers who would agree out there?

    Nenshi has never had the burden of being truthful or operating in reality. I’m so happy he is hanging his hat and is done. Since being elected mayor, Calgary’s economy has gone down, every year. But hey, look, white supremacists or something, don’t look at how bad of a job I’m doing.

    This guy oozes racism.
    Imagine if a white mayor would mouth off and attack people of a different ethnicity like Nenshi does.

    The City of Calgary & Mayor Nenshi deserve a Class Action Lawsuit for Slander.

    I am not what Nenshi just labeled many of us to be. Nenshi needs to defend himself in a court of law and prove his words or retract them & apologize. The City of Calgary is now pulled into this because of a the Mayor in what could be a potentially expensive for the Calgary Taxpayers.

    Class Action Against the City of Calgary & Mayor Nenshi. For Slander ??

    Folks, remember what Mayor Nenshi just said about white people in Alberta all being “white nationalist supremacists”.
    Mayor Nenshi is still the City of Calgary Mayor, until Oct 2021. Nenshi is suppose to represent all Calgarians fairly as Mayor.

    Would Nenshi stand for you & I to criticize his Muslim culture in such a despicable way?

    I’m not what you just labeled me Mayor Nenshi !! You don’t have that right to label me as a racists Nenshi. As far as I am concerned. You need to be brought down a notch or two.

    What do you say folks a class action lawsuit against the City of Calgary & Mayor Nenshi? For Slander?

    To quote Mr Northcott, “ it’s time for these politicians to pull their heads out of their asses.
    Throw, Nenshi, and the AHS into the mix with Jason Kenney, Justine Trudeau, and Notley.

    ““Those people at those anti-mask protests, let’s not kid ourselves. They’re not people who [are protesting because they] need to eat. They are people who are marching in thinly-veiled white nationalist supremacist anti-government protests.” — Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi.

    Hey Naheed! I like you. I give you the benefit of the doubt. But if all you have is insults and name-calling, while making it clear that you don’t want to engage in an open and televised debate with people who are truly knowledgeable and informed about COVID-19, such as John Carpay (of the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms) and Dr. Dennis Modry, then it just makes you look weak and foolish. Don’t do that to yourself.

    The Mayor is completely f’ed in the head.
    The mooosques are full and the police never show up there . . . why is that?

    You always know you have won when all these pathetic “leaders” have no science or data to back up their views, they always default to the standard racist, white supremist, denier, covidiot, and the list goes on. I guess they don’t realize how ignorant this makes them look, but it is how the “leaders” rule now. Fear and threats, don’t you dare question my authority. Incredible God complex, instead of worshipping God.

    He’s definitely getting a lot mouthier since he decided he’s not running again. A big fat thank you to all the dumb asses who voted for him time and time again.

    But police kneeling for BLM is fine, BLM protests, Antifa protests are fine, right Nenshi? Instead let’s talk about a group that doesn’t exist, or blame Proud Boys. How did we let these hypocrites gain power?

    It is hard to imagine how this guy got to be a mayor. Thank goodness he is leaving.

Rahki Pancholi made the comment after UCP Finance Minister Travis Toews said the province was asking nurses to take a pay cut. "Cutting nurses' pay after all they've done during the pandemic is yet "another reminder" of how women's work holds no value to the UCP," Pancholi wrote on Facebook.

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney's cabinet shuffle was done because he's hoping to worm his way out of an "internal political quagmire of his own making," say Independent MLAs. Drew Barnes and Todd Loewen, both booted from the UCP caucus earlier this year, issued a statement noting Kenney has increased the total size of the cabinet from 22 to 26. "On

Petition: No Media Bailouts

We the undersigned call on the Canadian government to immediately cease all payouts to media companies.

No Media Bailouts

The fourth estate is critical to a functioning democracy in holding the government to account. An objective media can't maintain editorial integrity when it accepts money from a government we expect it to be critical of.

We the undersigned call on the Canadian government to immediately cease all payouts to media companies.
