He said reopening the famous intersection could become a major election issue, pointing to a number of Winnipeg residents Browaty said are also against the move.

“I’m thoroughly frustrated with some of the mayor’s policies and some of the files that I’d say have been bungled,” Browaty said.

“At this point I’m not ruling anything out.”

Browaty said he would need a coalition of people from all walks of life to challenge current Mayor Brian Bowman.
