The grass is greener in Edmonton!

🧹 More graffiti, litter and transit cleaning
📚 Extended hours at libraries
🛟 Outdoor pools open sooner and longer

Today we celebrated the 2025 Civic Youth Fellowship interns!
This program, born from my first motion as Mayor to develop an anti-racism action plan, provides youth from diverse backgrounds a firsthand look into municipal government and the opportunity to work alongside city leadership.

Today, I joined community partners from the Winspear, Qualico & Free Play for Kids to talk about how extending the Community Revitalization Levy (CRL) would benefit our city by supporting arts & culture, improving infrastructure, building homes, & creating more accessible spaces in the our core.

The CRL levy is a tool for municipalities to incentivize investment in neighbourhoods without adding new tax dollars.
Extending the CRL Levy by 10 years is expected to generate between $705 million and $975 million in revenue.

Edmonton is better because of the many cultural groups who have shaped our city into the diverse and vibrant place it is today.
