Denley: It's time we allowed municipal political parties

Congratulations to Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson on his re-election to another four-year term. Nominations don’t close until Friday, but no significant challenger is going to come forward, so Watson is as good as in.
What will the re-elected mayor offer in his third term? We don’t know yet, but it really doesn’t matter, because we have already chosen him by default.
It’s a pretty sad situation when the province’s second-largest city has no serious race for mayor. That&rsq
