Thrilled to join Travel Alberta, Tourism Calgary and the Wilder Institute to kick off Tourism Week! Every week feels like Tourism Week in Calgary, thanks to exciting events in every corner of the city. Thank-you to everyone who makes Calgary one of the best places in the world to visit!

Great to join Ryan Jesperson and Edmonton Mayor Andrew Knack in studio on Real Talk! Got a few good jabs in (no, I'm not ready to put on that Oilers jersey quite yet!) but overall great conversation on infrastructure, working with other orders of government,

Six months in, I deeply appreciate the early show of confidence. It means a lot. Our Council team has taken on big challenges, and each councillor has contributed immensely to the rebound in confidence we're seeing.

Appreciated the warm welcome from Minister Dan Williams and the visit to the Legislature. In my time in elected office, I’ve worked with many different municipal ministers. Minister Williams very clearly understands our challenges and opportunities. Grateful for his leadership and partnership.

A deal is a deal.
