This week I dive into the political world of Edmonton and pull my guest from the clutches of City Council. Ward 6 City Councillor Scott McKeen and I had a wide-ranging conversation that covered everything from the Councillor’s past life as a journalist, to why he got into politics, current issues facing our city, and we even discuss some of his darker days dealing with mental health and addiction issues. Councillor McKeen's personality and life story stands up as a shining example of what can be accomplished by being a decent, honest, and admittedly flawed human being.
