Thank you to every Calgarian who voted. With a margin of just 585 votes (0.16%), I will be requesting a recount to ensure every ballot is properly counted. Win or lose, I am grateful for the opportunity and will fully accept the outcome - because every voice matters. #yycvote

The majority of Calgarians were not in favour of blanket rezoning. I voted against it in 2023 before it even became a policy. The Communities First team and I will repeal blanket rezoning on day one. I will ensure neighbourhood voices are brought back to council.
