1/2 On the eve of a beloved Calgary tradition, the annual menorah lighting at City Hall, I have learned that the event has been repositioned to be political. This breaks my heart. It is with great regret and sadness that I will not be attending. My statement is posted here.
@pootmans Thank you for your support of the budget and fighting for the priorities of your constituents. I appreciated your budget overview in your newsletter. Well written.
On #TransDayOfRemembrance we observe and mourn the many lives lost because of transphobia. The hatred, discrimination and violence towards the transgender community must stop.
At public hearing today it seems the debate is shifting….it’s not so much now if we need density but how we densify successfully-coinciding with significant Federal investment announcement today for housing.
Proud of my Ward 6 councillor and his team for taking such a conscientious approach to this important policy. The city is much better for how they raised the bar on discussion and engagement. #yyc #yyccc
Read my thoughts on why I voted to approve the Home is Here- The Calgary Housing Strategy. calgary.ca/council/ward-6…
@pootmans Thank you and your team for all your hard work. Some really great messaging came out of the Ward 6 office.
@pootmans Thank you. I appreciated the kind space and acknowledgement to all who spoke. The strategy is essentially a build more houses via the market solution. What is missing is a willingness to consider additional public housing solutions. @YYCNewcomers It is a 1st step. @Spencerfor12
@pootmans Thank you, Councillor! I valued the time you took to have a conversation with me earlier this year and your thoughtfulness on the housing strategy voting process.
Really loved Pootmans coming in hot for affordable housing!!!! ✨✨✨✨✨#yyccc
Today, we attended Wildwood School for an @AMAcommunity media event with Councillor @pootmans, school patrollers, the School Principal, @yyCBEdu, @CalgaryPolice, and our friends at Mobility Safety! 1/3
