This!! People discount young voters (even after panicking over losing them as a demo), and by doing so, neglect to campaign to them properly. Zohran reached them where they were at, and his popularity was so noticeable online.

Renter protections, including max heat bylaws, are something I’m very proud that our team included in this housing policy: www.jeromy.ca/news-1/polic...
Policy Brief Restoring Certainty A targeted vision for housing in Calgary JEROMIY FARKAS Restoring Certainty for Renters Nearly four in ten Calgarians rent their homes-including tens of thousands of families. But too many are facing rising rents, surprise evictions, and a lack of stability. For a single parent already juggling work and childcare, an unexpected rent hike can be devastating. For children, especially those with housing insecurity, frequent moves can mean disrupted schooling and emotional stress. Renters are even more vulnerable when rents rise faster than wages, and vacancies are few and far between. Many are one rent increase or lease expiry away from being forced out of their communities- or the city entirely. As mayor, I will work to protect renters and ensure that we all have a path to stable and affordable housing: 6. Launch a Calgary Renters' Support Office to provide legal information, mediation, and support. 7. Advocate to the province for improved rental protections, including clear rules around 'renovictions' and reasonable notice standards, and advocacy for the expansion of rent-geared-to-income housing, where rent is based on a tenant's ability to pay. 8. 9.1 Support the creation of a Non-Market Housing Acquisition Fund to preserve at-risk rental buildings. Champion a Housing First strategy prioritizing permanent housing with wraparound supports. 10. Establish a Renters' Advisory Council ensuring that tenant voices help shape municipal housing policy, for example, to begin exploration of a Maximum Heat Bylaw.
