Looks like Cartmell's website is in error, Darrell Friesen is running in ward sipiwiyiniwak, not in sspomitapi as written. Pretty embarassing error.

I'm not one to normally defend sloppiness or carelessness which this may be, but in this case I suspect most voters will not notice or care.
Unfortunately, the current ward names have little relevance for 95% or more of voters. It is inside baseball played by a very few.

Anyway, based on IG followers, Knack is blowing Cartmell out of the water!

Generational bias, young people prefer more left-leaning candidates, and are more likely to use Instagram.
Also Knack has been in office for 12 years.

Last federal election wouldn’t affirm this anymore as a give in.

Maybe, maybe not. NDP vote is likely the left-most party, and had the largest votership in 18-34 year olds.

Highest NDP, but also highest conservative. And comparing this election to the last 2 shows a massive shift

I'll be voting for Cartmell, time for a slight right wing shift.

Anyone not in a political party has my vote.

Adding political parties to municipal politics - perfect example of a. provincial overreach and b. providing a solution that clearly lacks an underlying problem. So yeah, I will not support this insanity. Plus, Knack is running so I don't have to vote for the dentist!

The dentist is spouting conspiracy theories again.

Got a link? All I found was a picture of him at Shen Yun in 2022.
