Yeah, that great beautiful city of Edmonton, home of the best ice-hockey team, The exciting Edmonton Oilers and hollywood-bound best ice-hockey champion, starry-eyed Wayne Gretzky, in Alberta, Canada, the place that I truly once loved, is a growing liberal place and the red necks are often said to be in hell, which is Calgary, home of the exciting ice-hockey team, the mighty Calgary Flames!But when it comes to local elections...with many women entering the local election fray, a man would always rise to the occasion to grab the mayorship!
This funny cartoon was found in a local community paper sometime in the 1980s.
The ballyhoo over a female leader reminds me of the recent Sarawak state elections whereby a defending elected female candidate was unfortunately defeated, possibly partly due to some rather sexist attacks.
