Erie County Priorities
When not offering up epochal cultural changes or international implementation of transit pipe dreams for his future as County Executive, Nate has really drilled down to the important priorities:
Buffalo doesn’t, indeed, have an IKEA, but shouldn’t Mr. Binational here know of the one in Burlington, and the ones farther away in Vaughan or Etobicoke? Also, we’re getting a pickup shop in Cheektowaga.
We do not, alas, have a “real Nike store.” There’s an outlet in the Falls, and another in Niagara-on-the-Lake. Last time I checked, they sell Nikes at Laux and Dicks. Also, y’know, the internet.
There’s a Tops we all know on Jefferson, but there’s also an Aldi and a couple of Sav-a-Lots. Obviously, this is not ideal, but it’s hardly a County Executive’s job to do site selection for supermarkets.
But the best response of all is this:
As of today…

Buffalo doesn’t have any buildings over 2000ft tall
Buffalo doesn’t have a saltwater port
Buffalo doesn’t have a downtown ski slope
Buffalo doesn’t even have a real elephant roaming the northtowns
I’m sick of pretending all of this is normal
