If we develop in the right way that number will skyrocket in our time! mark my words!

When the infrastructure is in and we have a much more urban city where young ppl like to live and the airport is upgraded etc. then halifax has a shipbuilding contract -_- .. and that only holds so much water .. when that is done and our economy is still BOOMING because of everything going on across the province .. where would people want to live? just give it a few more years with booming development and you'll see!

"come near your peril, Canadian wolf" hehehe

Head to head will be close, if another candidate runs who is similar to either Doc or O'Leary then the other should win.

I would love for that number to skyrocket! But we need a level-headed, realistic council to create a city that people will want to move to

I wonder how we are doing in terms of population growth. Are there people moving here from other provinces, or is it mostly people moving in from around the bay??

No offense to you or Signal.......but that is exactly WHY we do not need a NDP regime in Council or HOA. Now I shall run and cover my head from the firestorm I just created.

Identical views to O'Leary. Ran in the past election as a mayoral candidate.

Whats sad enough to realize that this time around the 1949 votes he got last time could possible be enough to put "She Who Shall Not Be Named" in as mayor.

Didn't he lose by a landslide though?? I thought Ron Ellsworth beat him by far.

Yes he got humilated.......however we can expect the results for Mayor to be much closer possibly.

MAYOR TOTAL
RON ELLSWORTH 36.69 12662
DENNIS O'KEEFE elected 57.66 19896
MARK WILSON 5.65 1949
TOTAL VOTES: 34507

1949? He may as well have had 666 appear on his forehead for how ominous that number is to me, ha!
