Calgary’s built on promises—work hard, do your part, and you’ll have a fair shot. I’ve lived that promise, from Dover to #yyccc to Glenbow Ranch. I’m running for mayor to restore trust, make our city safer & more affordable, and keep Calgary’s promise for everyone: calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu...
