Calgarians vote Yes or No on the Olympics Nov. 13.

Including Gauld, just six people keep the NoCalgaryOlympics group going.

They have no outside funding. They employ no paid staff. Gauld does have a business card. It reads: Founder.

Gauld has never worked on a political campaign and admits he doesn’t know how to run one. He does say eight smart young people from a book club may join in and give the group a hand.

He bought a domain name, put up a website known as www.nocalgaryolympics.org and got on Facebook and Twitter.

NoCalgaryOlympics has spent … get this … around $2,000 battling the Yes side. Just $2,000.

Gauld has nothing to gain. What does he get if the No side wins? There will be no Olympics, his life in Thorncliffe will go on and some people may hate his guts for being on Team No.
