  3. From ripping out the #ClimateChange work to ripping out housing to making public transit harder for those that depend on it, this is just a super regressive, reckless & future-blind city council. Thinking it might be Calgary's worst since I moved back here in the early 2Ks? #yyccc #yyc #Calgary

  6. This afternoon I had the pleasure of presenting to city council on the subject of their review, and city administration's recommendation, to close down the Free Fare Zone.

    The free fare zone is a program that has a set of stations that bisects the heart of my neighbourhood in downtown Calgary be usable at no cost, to the great benefit of local residents, community partners, businesses and tourists. #yyc #yyccc #Calgary

  9. Oh, LinkedIn, I howled when I saw this notification.

    Of course I'm qualified to be the Assistant Deputy Chief of my local fire department. 🤣 #yyc #yyccc #LinkedIn

    Never change, @linkedin .

  10. Mayor @[email protected], it's my great hope that yours won't be just another #KickTheCanCouncil. As such I greatly look forward to seeing your replacement solution as was promised to Calgarians. When can we expect it? (Reminding you below of an immutable fact of city building.) #yyc #yyccc

  11. Will this council advance REAL solutions to #YYC 's #Housing woes that will help our young people not just those that already made it? Are they builders or breakers? Is this a #KickTheCanCouncil that'll make a lot of big talk then hoof the problem on down the line to the next gang? We'll see. #yyccc

  16. Your regular reminder of this IMMUTABLE FACT of #CityBuiilding: if we only grow by building Way The Hell Out There then you've chosen far & away the most expensive way to build & you are, irrefutably, big spenders of Calgary's taxpayer dollars.

  21. I'm very disappointed with this city council and not for the first time and they haven't even been in office that long. #yyc #yyccc

  22. Update: Council will now only allow the building of single family homes, and only single family homes, in ~68% of the city.

    It's a blanket ban on building housing.

    Just another blanket. This time, snuffing out affordability.

  23. So far, I'm seeing a catastrophic failure in leadership at city hall. #Housing

    Repeal of the 2024 changes to zoning — and returning to 60%+ of my city being single family homes and *only* single family homes is horrifying.

    Banning building homes is not a strategy, #yyccc. #yyc

  24. Attention Calgary: if we make it harder to build housing and go back on our signed agreements with the feds, 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘄𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸. #yyc #yyccc #Housing #cdnpoli

  25. RE: mastodon.world/@vsp/1162995365

    FYI: I showed up to city hall and said don't repeal re-zoning. #yyccc #yyc

    It's a bad idea.

    I also flagged the dozens of unfilled Affordability Taskforce recommendations that this council is still sitting on their tufts on.

    My frustration? My rent has gone up 33% and council is paralyzed.

  26. Behold this immutable fact of city-building. We've always built the most expensive way possible. Previous council took real, bold steps to fix this. New council debating repeal. In it's place, what? Anything? Another panel? Another study? #Housing #Rezoning #yyc #yyccc #Sprawl #UrbanSprawl #Density

Just remember, when you're in the warmest February you've ever seen outside of the last couple years or so, WE WILL PAY FOR THIS with commensurate levels of FIRE & SMOKE this spring, summer & fall. Then DEMAND your political leaders #TalkClimate & most importantly ACT ON IT #yyc #yyccc #cdnpoli
