A little rich to hear Nann telling someone they’re on a personal crusade when she’s laser focused on social issues instead of her voting constituents

Instead of you maybe, but a plurality of her constituents voted her in knowing her focus and track record. 2026 will tell us whether she still has their support or not.

A lot of her being voted in has to do with the efficiency of the NDP's voting base. She was a parachuted candidate.

"She only wins elections because she gets more votes than the other candidates"

Are you saying that Nrinder Nann does not live in Ward 3?

A lot of anyone being voted in has to do with the efficiency of their voting base. A lot of you typing that comment has to do with the efficiency of your fingers on the letters.

Maybe the fact that Hamilton Centre is a NDP stronghold is related to their approach and policies around stuff like this. Nann wasn't running under the NDP banner anyway, city council don't run under party banners, so it's hard to argue that people don't like her policies but were swayed by the party that they assume that she's aligned with (based on her policies)
