If Bob's accusations are true, that's pretty bad, but I don't think Sutcliff is that kind of guy. That's seems like a strategy for a long time politicians, not a community builder like Sutcliffe.

I think Bob is just kind of losing it. He's not ready for a third major defeat.

At this point, Chiarelli stilll has no chance of getting my vote. Old ideas talking about freezing taxes, finding "efficiencies" (code word for blind cuts all-around) and fixing roads. Some on Sutcliffe's list of supporters is concerning me. I continue to lean towards McKenney. Certainly don't agree with everything on their platform, but certainly the candidate who will likely get us closer to a City where the car is not the only option.
AFAIK, Chiarelli isn't entirely out to lunch on this claim, (though he is one many others) as it was a bigger name stating that Chiarelli would drop out but it was an opinion and not on behalf of Sutcliffe campaign... Also that allegation came out like a month ago....

As for campaign supporters, you've got a 3rd party advertiser Horizon Ottawa, and Clive Doucet supporting McKenney. So there's baggage all around. As it stands there's no "right" wing candidate (maybe Chiarelli) so Sutcliffe is the only real choice and McKenney is the only left wing candidate so...

Like seriously, Gilbert/Horizon is a response to Sutcliffe saying Ottawa has to stop blocking housing, Doucet is well just his standard nimbyism.
