"Sorry... we were caught"

Just so all our American friends are in the know. Cowtown is a nickname for Calgary, Alberta. We have far right extremists just like in the USA, so this is no surprise. Alberta and Saskatchewan are the 2 farthest right provinces (states) in Canada. In fact we actually have Trump supporters in these provinces, what sense does that make?

I wish. Sadly my guess is it'll just be more of the "No comment" or "I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!" variety.

People have gotta stop using commas if they don't know what they're for. At least there isn't one in the actual original headline, although there are far too many professionally produced headlines nowadays that do have a comma separating the subject from the verb.

Thank goodness the conservatives plot was foiled, and we no-longer have to worry about them damaging this province. No if you'll excuse me, I'll just go see what our new Premier is up to... oh no... oh dear god NO!

Mayor Nenshi seems like a solid guy. Has he considered entering national politics?

Fucking conservatives

If they are like US Conservatives they will respond with "It's really the liberals/left-leaning people's fault", or "but the left does this too" with made-up or out of context examples. If neither of those work, then it has to be "fake news" or "well x deserved it anyway". Conservatives are past the point where admitting fault is an option.

All true. There's also a fair chance at least some of this sting was based on Nenshi being Muslim and Brown too. If he'd been "caught" it would've fed the racist beast that consumes Canadian conservatives rn.
I can't help but be proud of Nenshi and his moral code. Too bad every politician didn't look to him for inspiration.

To make a Canadian Trump supporter's brain explode, ask them to explain why his presidency is a good thing for Canadians. And don't accept answers about why his presidency is good for Americans. Be very specific that they must explain why Trump's presence in the white house is beneficial in any way to Canadian people living in Canada.
The mental gymnastics are hilarious.

Yeah, that's a weird comma, like, they had something there, but then, removed it,. ,, ,,,
