So incredibly excited for Kitty and Caleb to be opening their new location. Sought and Found has become so much more than just a local cafe and they are incredible people. Can't wait to hit them up in the beltline! dailyhive.com/calgary/soug...

Hey, #yyccc, we have an opportunity to bring back the community store and business in neighborhood when we update our land use bylaw next year. It's a small thing, but can really improve community walkability and vibrancy. Yes, I will die on this hill.

What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible. Not hyperbole: Jamaica is facing a generational catastrophic event.

Alright, organized labour in Alberta, eyes are on you (us). Time to stand up for collective bargaining. Time to stand up for workers rights. Time to push back against draconian anti-worker overreach. Regardless of direction, the next steps will define the labour movement in Alberta for decades.

Hadn't seen this public art at night yet - looks even better than during the day! What do you see?

The future in Southern Alberta looks increasingly dry and filled with extremes. The retreating glaciers, diminishing snowpacks, and population growth will result in increasing water woes. calgaryherald.com/news/local-n...

I want to congratulate @mykeatkinson.bsky.social on his win in Ward 7. Thank you, also, to Heather, Terry, Anthony, and Greg for putting your name in the ring and running great campaigns. It's not the outcome I'd hoped for. Democracy is messy, but so worth it. #yyccc

Get out and vote, Calgary! And dress warmly. Slow line at our polling station. Why does a form need to be completed for each voter?? Takes a lonnnggg time to get your ballots. #yyc

Heads up everyone. Poll lines are long & likely only getting longer. The province has made it this way with hand counting of ballots (requiring separate ballots for each race) & changes to the voter registry requiring a form for everyone. Don't be discouraged! #yyccc #yycelxn

The day we've been working towards is upon us. To every single person who volunteered their time, knocked on doors, dropped literature, and to every donor who supported - thank you. Your support is what has made this all possible. #yyc #calgary #ward7 #yyccc #yycelxn

My name is David Barrett and I'm asking for your vote for Ward 7 Councillor. From the pathways we walk to the water we drink, the Bow River is the heart of our community in Ward 7. It connects us all. On October 20, help protect the river by lending me your vote. #yyccc #yyc

One part of this is enforcement & education. The other part is street design. With the traffic calming & neighbourhood streets program going unfunded, we're not able to address the root cause of the issue. I am committed to funding these programs #yyccc

✅ Endorsed by organizations fighting poverty ✅ Hundreds of lawn signs out ✅ Nearly a hundred volunteers On October 20th, vote for 10+ years of a track record, experience, and expertise. Head to davidfor7.ca/where_to_vote to find your polling station!🗳️ #yyccc #yyc #yycelxn

This should be treated like the crisis that it clearly is. If any other act of violence killed 3 people in 2 days in Calgary it would be front page news. perfect example of the bias @drtaragoddard.com writes about. Instead of discussing "stranger danger" with my kids I go on endlessly about cars

Another great morning for talking to ward 7 residents. Come find us down at Kerby station, grab some coffee and chat! #yyccc #yyc #yycelxn

There's a lot going on these days, so it's easy to understand how it's a struggle to engage with the municipal election this year. But it's absolutely critical that we, as Calgarians, elect a principled & forward looking council. Go vote on Monday! #yyccc

Coffee, cargo bike and chatting about my vision for ward 7. That's a good start to the morning! #yyccc #yyc

I wish this individual a speedy recovery. We need to get improvements on centre Street NOW. Centre Street, in it's current form doesn't work well for any user. #yyccc

- Low turnout - Vote-splitting - Feeling like votes are being wasted - Candidates winning with barely 30% of the votes These issues are plaguing the current municipal election in Calgary and we could address them by making the switch to ranked ballots. #yyc #yyccc andrewng.media/2025/10/12/c...

Thrilled to see the completion of this project. This isn't just about preserving headstones; it's about honoring the resilience of the Chinese community that helped build #yyc. Protecting this sacred space ensures their stories are not forgotten. calgaryherald.com/ne...#yyc.#yyccc

Calgary mayoral candidates are bickering about which arena deal was best—and who got fleeced. And an outgoing city councillor now says progressive councillors voted yes to the deal in 2023 "at great political cost." Here's how the deal got done. (Listen and/or read!) #yyccc

NEW: Elections Calgary says 96,549 Calgarians voted in advance polls - 10.7% of eligible voters. Saturday saw the highest turnout of the week. To compare: 141,329 people voted early in 2021. Election Day is Oct 20.

Today is the last day of advance voting. If you want to avoid the lines on October 20, find the nearest advance poll station here: www.electionscalgary.ca/for-voters/w...

We are seeing an increasing rate of income inequality and a growing poverty gap in Calgary. And our current Ward 7 councillor isn't prioritizing addressing it. Instead, we have grassroots volunteer organizations filling the gaps #yyccc

Here we go! Advance voting is on from October 6 - 11. Elections Calgary is working hard to make sure that everyone has the opportunity to cast their ballot. Scroll through to see the locations and days for advance voting in (and around) Ward 7. #yyccc

It is incredibly important that we hear from and address the issues facing the next generation. They are facing a worsening affordability cris, 17% unemployment, and multiple other pressures all at once. It's something I see frequently at the UofC. #yyccc www.cbc.ca/news/cana...

I’m supporting @davidfor7.ca in Ward 7 @jeromyyyc.bsky.social Mayor @calgary.ca has provided TONS of advance voting stations 10am-7pm from Mon 6 Oct thru Sat 11 Oct. Today I’m printing stuff at downtown library so will vote at nearby Platform. thecityofcalgary.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant...

It's incredibly disappointing to hear Mr Wong and his party continue to disregard experts and want to waste money on more studies to tell us what we already know. This time it's transit gates. They don't improve safety. Ward 7 deserves better #yyccc

As a parent, I see the dedication of our teachers every single day. They show up for our kids & now it's our turn to show up for them. I stand in solidarity with Alberta teachers as they fight for better learning environments and supports for our public education system. #yyccc #AlbertaTeachers ✊🏼

We've been talking a lot about water here in Calgary over the last few years. Whether it's low river flows or potable water access, we've come to appreciate its importance & value. As we continue to grow, & see greater climate extremes, this will only become more important #yyccc

This is fantastic news. Small retail on transit means more eyes on the platforms, more convenience for riders, and a better transit experience. Can't wait to see additional kiosks open! #yyccc #yyc

Sprawl costs us — socially, fiscally, and environmentally. This campaign is about restoring investment to our inner-city communities and ensuring our children still have a future here. Support the campaign at davidfor7.ca #yyc #yyccc #yycelection

Today, we observe the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. We wear orange to honour the children who never came home, the survivors of residential schools, their families, and the intergenerational trauma that continues to affect Indigenous communities.

I'm pledging to introduce a motion to make Calgary a Queer Sanctuary City. In the face of harmful provincial legislation, we must act to protect the rights and safety of our 2SLGBTQIA+ community. #Ward7 #YYC #YYCVotes #TransRights 🧵

I've said it before, I will say it again. Every city councillor and the mayor (with security) in Calgary should have to take transit at a minimum once per week from their residence in the ward to work (i.e.: City Hall) and home. We would immediately have improved transit if they were on it. 🚌🚉

This is a fantastic summary of why housing affordability needs to be the priority that our next council needs to focus on. We have a fantastic expert-compiled roadmap in the Housing Affordability Task Force report - now we need to action them #yyccc 🧵

This is so cool! Well done, Alfonso! Maybe I should plan my doorknocking routes to make art like this... 🤔

This is a fantastic read about how we've excluded kids from experiencing and exploring our city. "a major reason for this trend is that we’ve deprived children of their right to the city" We need to do better! #yyccc

A few weeks ago on Stephen Avenue, I had the privilege of meeting Matthew and chatting with him about his experiences. His story puts a human face on the complex challenges facing many in our city. Matthew - you are an inspiration! #yyc

"... Williams said she believes voters will look for evidence of leadership and compromise in the candidates they vote for this fall." Ward 7 has a choice this Oct. I bring the experience in leadership & advocacy & a willingness to work together. #yyccc www.cbc.ca/news/cana...
