Sheldon Yakiwchuk

Calgarians deserve a fiscally-responsible, ethical, and common sense city council. I'm ready to step up and advocate on behalf of the community I've called home the past 30 years. I'm running to represent the people of Ward 4. See my statement below. Sheldon4Ward4.ca

@CarmYEGAB I received my Edmonton Property Tax notice and you are correct...despite the conditions in Edmonton, it went up, for no good reason. Fortunately, I'd sold in November and am not on the hook for that anymore. Sorry to see you guys suffer unnecessarily, Maggie.

@Sheldon4Ward4 At least your taxes aren't like Edmonton's. We are now double Calgary. The corruption in Edmonton is over the top.

I talked about the decline in home sales and the drop in pricing that could be expected - back in September of last year - as related to the unnecessary densification through blanket rezoning. I'd included this in discussion with getting the City Budget back inline, because when property values decline and taxes are based on their assessed value, additional revenue will be required just to keep up. This is where we are now but there's still an additional 40-50k properties in the pipeline - scheduled for 2026, meanwhile - 1.15 Million Canadians will be renewing their mortgages and will see an average increase of 20% on their payments. You're not going to like where this is headed. Perhaps electing a Municipal Government that pivots on news instead of watching markets was a little short-sited, hey? dailyhive.com/calgary/calgar…

Hey Calgary Frens...I need your help. The city has waged war on another small business, that's supported their community for almost 3 decades. In my latest - I explain the situation. Read through to the end and become a part of the campaign to help support Cathy, her staff and dream at Angel's Cafe: Like, Support and Share.

@Jason___YYC Guess what?

This fucking chud blocked me for explaining equalization

@Kanuckit Duty is to constituency. I’d stick with that.

@Sheldon4Ward4 How will you act against the interests of the Crown? If elected, you must swear and oath to the Crown and its Heirs. You cannot be an MLA without it.

Should I run for a seat in the Alberta Legislature? I've been enjoying my down-time following the municipal election, happy to be somewhat away from the political circle...but am getting requests to either run for council again - in 4 years - or to run for a seat in Leg... And I don't know why I'd want to do this. Thoughts?

@DanielHuculak Yup.

@Sheldon4Ward4 Will you support an Independent Alberta?

@ridge_line1 This is correct.

@Sheldon4Ward4 The whole thing is a dirty game it eats up good people.

@BonnieMeikle1 @AlbertaFree1983 Add to this, Jun Lin signed up a few hundred of his friends...there were 18 more votes for president than were people allowed to vote...counting took forever. The takeover of Edgemont is what happened. It's now the largest CA in Alberta, by way of memberships.

@AlbertaFree1983 @Sheldon4Ward4 Panda mobilized a bunch of ethnic supporters and drowned out citizens.

@RonVoss5 Yes.

@Sheldon4Ward4 Sheldon is that a yes?

@BonnieMeikle1 Edgemont and No. AGM next weekend and it should be as disastrous as last year.

@Sheldon4Ward4 I have no doubt you're what we want to see in an MLA. It's such a cesspool, though, so it's a big decision. What's your riding? Is yours a good CA?

@rpaulblazek Valid.

@Sheldon4Ward4 The only question you have to answer is why? Are you doing it because others are encouraging you or are you doing it because in your heart you want to serve the people od your community. One has purpose and one doesn't.

@gsillak Claypool is dead to me.

@Sheldon4Ward4 It appears to be tough to get in. I have no idea what it takes but it may be worth talking Wyatt Claypool if you haven’t already.

@durnfomari I'm Ukrainian. I have no choice - it's a part of our genetic make-up.

@Sheldon4Ward4 All areas of government need good people with fiscal sense. Is that you?

@DuckyA670947 This Recall Campaign is part of what is making politics disgusting in our country. While I appreciate the intent of recall legislation - I have zero appreciation for the NDP and the Unions weaponizing it. We will get no good people in politics if this continues.

@DavidCan2002 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Sheldon4Ward4 Maybe listen to the wife on this one? 🙈

@Albergraph I have no interest in there games. They’ll see how well this plays out for them.

@Sheldon4Ward4 It sounds like an episode of Survivor or Big Brother.

This is amusing... People that supported other candidates in the municipal election and voted against me, are now looking for my support. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Cees6502 Yup. Bigger story.

@Sheldon4Ward4 If they not voted for you, did they voted against you?

@rambug73 I am back to being off the charts! And, with no political affiliation - I burn no bridges. ;)

@Sheldon4Ward4 The best thing is now you can laugh in their face.. Good for you for doing your best Sheldon!
