So, for starters, @AndrewKnack was dragged in to this when members of the PUBLIC complained about your social media conduct. As mayor, I suppose your MO will be to pawn off legitimate citizen concerns on to your colleagues? That sounds professional ...
And after a warranted investigation, the ethics commissioner found you, @MikeNickelYEG (just making sure you're still with me on this thread) were guilty of a code of conduct violation https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/city-council-integrity-commissioner-nickel-1.5695531
But of course, in your campaign hindsight, you label a CITIZEN-initiated investigation that you didn't like the outcome of an "expensive stunt." Holding elected officials to account is a stunt, eh? Well that sounds like a mayor ...
So now we have an ethics violation (which has no teeth whatsoever) and our boy Mikey squirms out of any accountability since council has a high bar to clear for sanctions. https://edmontonjournal.com/news/local-news/edmonton-councillor-mike-nickel-avoids-punishment-for-code-of-conduct-violations-in-narrow-vote
So remember #yeg, if you want a mayor who lies to you and throws his council colleague under the bus for a cheap campaign stunt, vote @MikeNickelYEG!
