Ward 13 Coun. Dan McLean is accusing a third-party advertiser of "whipping votes" in favour of the proposed RC-G rezoning bylaw.Ward 13 Coun. Dan McLean is accusing a third-party advertiser of “whipping votes” in favour of the proposed RC-G rezoning bylaw.A public hearing is currently being held with around 181 panels scheduled to speak and is expected to last all week.
McLean said the group’s director has been watching the hearing and believes the group is trying to influence the vote.“So today, in the back corner of the public hearing, there is what I consider a party whip from the Calgary’s Future union leader. He is here every time there is a public hearing,” McLean said.“Calgary’s Future themselves have come out with posts saying they are basically whipping their candidates to vote the way they want them to. So parties exist already, let’s not be naive.
“I don’t know where he’s getting this information from. It’s certainly not something that’s come across my line of sight,” she said. “We encourage people to participate,” he said. “We’re supporting the RC-G because there’s a lot of people who are left out of this conversation. I cannot talk with anybody to vote in any way because they will vote where they feel is balanced.”“Most of this conversation that I’m hearing from a lot of my colleagues are based on a lot of conspiracy theories about who’s whipping votes and whatnot,” he told reporters Thursday.
