Not surprising, curious how Council will recieve it. Paquette has already said he thinks it will be a tough sell.

When certain Mayoral candidates are criticizing the plan for the upcoming bridgework, bear in mind whether they had opportunities to address this before it benefited their political careers. It helps indicate how effective they actually are. The timeline is from this article.

If Karen Principe's federal run (as a Conservative, natch) for Edmonton-Griesbach is unsuccessful, do you think she'll seek re-election to city council?

Former PC MLA Dave Quest announces he’s dropping out of the federal Conservative nomination race in Edmonton Griesbach. He’s endorsing City Councillor Karen Principe, who entered the race yesterday. Membership cut off is tomorrow. 👀

Absolutely. Council had the opportunity to make the repairs gradually over their term, but instead shoveled it down the line. Now we're looking at the near-complete closure of Downtown access.

While I don't catastrophize about this as much of others, I do agree Council had the opportunity to plan this better. And I really don't want to pussyfoot around here about that, lets name names.
Cartmell is on council and is just as much a part of that as the others. He can not just try pretend he was off working somewhere else over the last several years, that would be dishonest and insults everyone's intelligence.

He's also holding up the grail of "build it better", and every time he puts out collateral for it you half-expect it to come with a plan of some sort.
It's always nothing. Just him saying construction is a problem as if he hasn't had any say in it since 2021.
