Reasons the rest of Canada should be super jealous of Alberta

He's riding a stick horse for God's sake. How can you not like this guy? Image taken from The Edmonton Journal.

I think that title is pretty self explanatory. Seriously, our new mayor is 12. We couldn't have timed our move from Toronto to Edmonton any better. I think part of why I like Iveson is cause he's so much like David. It's actually uncanny.

Check it:

• Both into politics.
• He looks 12 but is really over 30.
• A Star Trek/Wars nerd.
• His wife is Asian and named Sarah.
• (and the kicker) from Reddit:

From Iveson's Reddit AMA.

Our friends have actually said David's is Phil Dunphy. Not A Real Man.

Speaking of which, Iveson's AMA on Reddit is also worth a skim though.  Besides the fun city stuff like the LRT expansion, there are bits on Star Trek, the Oilers and who would play him in a TV movie.

Also noteworthy is the slideshow at the end of Huffpost article of the Silliest Questions Tourists Ask in Alberta. My favourite may be "At what elevation does an elk become a moose?" Made even more absurd by trying to sound academic and posing it like an exam question.
