I haven't seen any impartial or empirical evidence in your posts. If you want to provide some point me to it.
you did. Right here when you were quoting me:

I do like the blame being shifted to the public here, very classy stuff.
when you imagined I am shifting blame to the public. It's you who should be blaming the public if you feel that Gondek and Smith have failed in their duty to their constituents. The public elected them. Them holding office is literally the will of the public.
I don't even know what you're trying to say here. The hypocrisy I see is Albertans getting their underwear twisted about a deal that benefits the Flames when they've been relatively quiet about the millions on billions of public money benefitting foreign Oil companies and others in this province for the last 50 years. You know how I judge them to be relatively quiet? Because they've elected the same party every election but one in that time.
That's pretty clear dictionary definition hypocrisy. If you're going to be angry about something, when the time comes to do something about it you should do something about it.
That's a lot of assumptions for one paragraph. That the immediate area local population were voting exclusively against the arena deal and that all other votes were ill informed being the major one. The city council voted unanimously in favor of this deal. Am I led to believe that every elected official in this city is nothing but a two bit crook in Murray Edwards' pocket?
Well they have. Unquestionably they have. It is my view that the day of the good deal is long dead, and that late stage capitalism will soon succeed in sucking the middle class dry. Viewing it through that context I can be degrees more pleased with spending public money that benefits a
Calgary based company, that has deep roots in the community of
Calgary, who are providing a public entertainment service important to many
Calgarians. If you think that's absurd you're welcome to your opinion.
