While it is true that Sim doesn't have municipal government experience, there will be a steep learning curve ahead. It goes both ways, sometimes it's good to have an outsider who hasn't been molded by the institution and ask, 'Why can't we do it this way?'. On the other hand, the checks and balances of a municipal government are there for a reason and he'll learn ... eventually ...that it isn't easy as snapping your fingers to fix things.

However, one thing going for him is that he does have a majority slate in councillors ... which is akin to a majority in Provincial or Federal government which should make things pass easier.
