Her stated aim is to force people into "treatment centers". That's why she's so supportive of Gondek's "request". Never mind the rest of the story.

I think the true ideological margin is quite a bit wider given center center left splitting to Gondek's camp.

To be clear, i had no major issues with Mayor Gondeck. The mayor is but one vote on council. Council had become dysfunctional with two sparing camps. I gave my vote to @jeromyyyc.bsky.social with a hope to bring some semblance of collegiality to council. calgaryherald.com/news/jyoti-g...

There are way to many of the right applauding this and saying this shows how it demonstrates Gondek’s dysfunctional leadership. That makes me sad (and angry) as all we’ve done is kept a high burden on non residential businesses, delayed spending, and pulled out of the reserve for needed spending

While Markusoff corrects Dreeshen’s %’s, he does not correct Gondek’s % of lane km.
With 17,000 lane km of streets in Calgary, there is less than 30km of actual exclusive “bike lanes”.
That works out to 0.18%.
That’s less than 1/5th of 1%.🤔

Back to stats… Gondek quotes that bike lanes account for less than one percent of the city's road surfaces...
While technically true, actual designated space (not bikeways) is only ~30km.
That’s like 0.2% of the 17,000 of vehicle lanes. 🤷♂️

Mayor Amarjeet Sohi was attempting to cut his pay so it matches Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek’s base salary.
Council voted against it because they want to stick with the recommendations from the independent compensation committee — members not chosen by council, appointed by city clerk.

AB Premier Danielle Smith plans to close Calgary’s supervised consumption site, citing Mayor Gondek’s request..though Gondek wanted relocation & expansion, NOT CLOSURE. SCS save lives, reduces overdoses & connects people to care. Closure risks increased public substance use and ER strain. Do better!
Supervised consumption sites save lives—full stop.
Calgary just protested the closure of their SCS in October. But mere months later, the provincial government is attacking it yet again.
We should be using every evidence-based tool available, too much is at stake to let ideology drive care policy.

Didn't realize Stephen Carter was involved in better Edmonton.
If you can go from Gondek's office to trying to place UCP in charge of Edmonton you truly have zero morals. (not to be confused as an endorsement of Gondek.) One of Alberta's worst consultants truly.
