Perhaps everybody will use the same excuse... sorry, let me repeat that word... EXCUSE that he is using. Not freakin' likely considering the small number of NDP minded mayors in Canada.

Nowhere in this post, the post it links to or the original article does it connect this to the NDP. And the reason is because it has nothing to do with the NDP.
