The Calgary Sun gets all gushy and enthusiastic over the mayor they usually like to beat up:
No one goes after the mayor of this city harder than we do.
We don’t apologize for that. It’s our job and we like to think we do it louder than most.
But it’s never personal.
So, with that as background, we would like to take this space today to commend Mayor Naheed Nenshi for his amazing leadership under the most trying of circumstances.
He has been a beacon of strength, support and optimism as Calgary battles the affects of the single-biggest disaster to hit our city.
The mayor, as always, has been a great communicator.
Through social media, traditional media and constant briefings, Nenshi has made it his personal undertaking to deliver the most up-to-date information to all Calgarians through all mediums.
