So incredibly excited for Kitty and Caleb to be opening their new location. Sought and Found has become so much more than just a local cafe and they are incredible people.

Hey, #yyccc, we have an opportunity to bring back the community store and business in neighborhood when we update our land use bylaw next year.
It's a small thing, but can really improve community walkability and vibrancy.
Yes, I will die on this hill.

City staff are back with a modified plan to allow corner stores and cafes in residential neighbourhoods. The residents’ association that opposed the plan says it’s still not happy.

What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible.

Alright, organized labour in Alberta, eyes are on you (us). Time to stand up for collective bargaining. Time to stand up for workers rights. Time to push back against draconian anti-worker overreach.
Regardless of direction, the next steps will define the labour movement in Alberta for decades.

I want to congratulate @mykeatkinson.bsky.social on his win in Ward 7.
Thank you, also, to Heather, Terry, Anthony, and Greg for putting your name in the ring and running great campaigns.
It's not the outcome I'd hoped for. Democracy is messy, but so worth it.

Heads up everyone. Poll lines are long & likely only getting longer.
The province has made it this way with hand counting of ballots (requiring separate ballots for each race) & changes to the voter registry requiring a form for everyone.
Don't be discouraged! #yyccc #yycelxn

This should be treated like the crisis that it clearly is.
If any other act of violence killed 3 people in 2 days in Calgary it would be front page news.
perfect example of the bias @drtaragoddard.com writes about.
Instead of discussing "stranger danger" with my kids I go on endlessly about cars

There's a lot going on these days, so it's easy to understand how it's a struggle to engage with the municipal election this year. But it's absolutely critical that we, as Calgarians, elect a principled & forward looking council. Go vote on Monday! #yyccc
Undecided and apathetic: Calgary voters seek clarity in final days of election campaign
Calgary’s municipal election is just days away, but low advance voter turnout and an undecided electorate mark what has been a mostly slow and sleepy campaign.
