I think Melissa Bowman definitely has her finger on the pulse of cycling needs – I had coffee with her very early in the campaign to talk about Hold The Line, cycling, business issues, downtown issues... she listened intently, asked good questions, and even seemed interested when I floated the idea of upzoning low-rise residential neighbourhoods.

Isn't Chapman a member or somehow involved with the Labour Council? To me, it would make sense that the Labour Council would endorse their own members over someone from the outside. Also, I'm not sure why a federal lobby group like the labour council would want to be involved at the municipal level...unless they're trying to influence council  Dodgy

The City of Kitchener only allows unionized businesses to submit bids, so the Labour Council has a big interest in who is elected.
