A historical satire by actors who did little research, from theedmontonian.com and the EdmontonPolitics.com team.
From garbage collection to policing, recreation to power generation, the City of Edmonton provides a lot to its residents. Our city’s former mayors sure have some thoughts on what could be done better. And what they’d rather just take care of without you sticking your nose into it.
In this forum:
Mayor Matthew (Mat) “Warden” McCauley – Edmonton’s first mayor
Mayor William J. McNamara – First mayor to defeat a sitting incumbent, in the city’s closest race (still the closest race to date)
Mayor William “Wild Bill” Hawrelak – 3 time mayor, twice had to leave office because of land deals, eventually died in office
After the jump you’ll find out just what the think. Hopefully Fightin’ Joe Clarke doesn’t show up to settle the score with Mayor McNamara…
