I’m proud to be on Jeromy’s team. This interview shows great leadership skills in being able to be so open and vulnerable.
🌈 As Calgary Pride 2025 begins, I weigh in on the light and dark of our journey together.
We’re not yet the city where everyone feels welcome, safe, and celebrated—but we can be.
And we will be.

Instead of sharing their own ideas, they’re focused on tearing me down.

This is a positive campaign, focused on what’s great about Calgary and how we can make it even better. Jeromy is able to bring people together for a common goal. We see that in the cross section of Calgarians at events & in our team. #yyccc
What a night! We recently met with friends (old and new) to talk about Calgary’s future and our path forward together. The room was filled with excitement and momentum.
But we still need your help! We can't build our hopeful vision of Calgary without you, so please join us at www.ourpathforward.ca.

Community surveys are a huge part of understanding where candidates stand on the issues that matter to us and what they prioritize (or have given even any thought to). The responses to Creative Calgary’s will be interesting to watch for all of us who love the arts www.creativecalgary.org/mayor

At times like this, the notion of 'Canada' is not something you put on and take off like a team jersey.
It's something you feel in your heart and pumps in your blood.
It's a country Alberta’s New Democrats believe is worth fighting for.

What started in the 1960s continued with a new series in the 1980s that became a Canadian classic.
