Albertans are extremely concerned about what is likely the largest data leak in Canadian history. The government has a responsibility to protect our privacy and our rights. We need the Premier to take this seriously.

@BobleeCalgary @Landonforward14 If people want to overwater their lawn, let them do it. They pay for it. But there’s still no excuse for the city to reallocate $4B dedicated to infrastructure and put it into general revenue. 20% of our water loss is due to leakage and negligence. We pay, and still lose.

Watering restrictions are coming after council’s 10-5 vote in favour of the bylaw. This is just punishing taxpayers for bad governance. Talked to plenty of Calgarians, they don’t want it. This will be our council’s bag bylaw.

@KybrdWrrr @YuleLoveYYC That’s not the cool hipster thing to do though. It’s way cooler to spend yourself into financial oblivion and ruin future generations!

@YuleLoveYYC When will the cost of this project be released publicly? The City of Calgary is running several large expensive projects simultaneously. All of you need to cut your spending.

We were honoured to host Minister Schow this week to discuss The Prairie Economic Gateway! Over $7B in economic activity and more than 30,000 jobs across the Calgary region over the next 10-12 years. Excited to collaborate with the UCP Government on this transformative project!

@canshareholder @fordnation 100%. Healthcare is technically more expensive in Canada than anywhere else, based on efficiency of the system. We pay more for less service, how do we correct that?

@Landonforward14 @KybrdWrrr @somecalgarian I call bullshit. If you had the balls to do something about it, you would. But you don’t, you’re part of the political theatre that you claim to hate. Walk the walk buds. Stop talking and walk, you might lose your job, but you’ll have your spine in the end.

Exactly. My principle is staying in our lane and rejecting performative politics. The Mayor dragged us into provincial drama for a letter anyway, so I moved to actually cover the AISH shortfall and help people. He chose the show. That's the lane I won't drive in, all talk, no traction.

I do not support Calgary stepping into provincial jurisdictional issues. That’s exactly why I voted today against sending the performative letter proposed by the Mayor on AISH cuts. But after Mayor Farkas dragged Council into his March 4th special meeting of council over the education tax increase (the same mayor who campaigned saying he “stood with teachers”). I gave him the chance with the AISH funding cuts to put your money where his mouth is. I did something I never thought I would do and moved a motion for the City to actually cover the AISH funding shortfall and help the vulnerable Calgarians he’s using as political pawns to fight the province. He refused to support it. All talk. When given the real opportunity for action, he chose performance. This shows exactly where his priorities lie. Calgarians deserve better than performative leadership. I pushed back against the last Mayor’s governance, and I will push back against this one too. It’s time we focus on the real work of good governance and the priorities we were elected to deliver.

@ChadG403 @fordnation Healthcare is also a provincial matter and functions like a public insurance plan Which everyone pays into everyday no Buddy can opt out of paying a provincial sales tax so everyone contributes obviously it’s a bloated system that need reform but at least it’s earned

@canshareholder @fordnation 💯💯💯 They’re entitled to it, but the government created a monster by “guaranteeing” it for everyone, regardless of if they need it or not. Personally I’d opt out of every program the government has and fend for myself, including healthcare, but there’s no option.

@DevinDVote I drive 80mph down to my house in the states every winter, with seasonal speed limits posted as per the conditions. You're proud of 120km/h? Pull your head out of your ass.

@canshareholder @fordnation It's time for Ontario to stand up, bummer you have Toronto to deal with, the center of the universe some call it. I have family out east, but the comfort of "free healthcare and pensions" keep them silent. Freedom is being free to do what you want, when you want, on your terms

@ChadG403 @fordnation It’s all good, Alberta has more support in Ontario than you’d imagine especially when you leave the Toronto bubble. We’d love for Alberta to stay n we agree things currently aren’t fair n need to change but our vote is being replaced n imported from abroad! Just like ford wants!

Today we introduced our Spring Economic update and your new governments plan is working. ✅ Non-U.S. exports are up and by over $30 billion. The deficit has been reduced by $11 billion and we are leveraging our fiscal capacity to invest in Canadians. ✅ Team Canada Strong will train and hire up to 100,000 skilled trades workers by 2030. Real jobs. Real opportunity. Built in Canada. ✅ The Canada Strong Fund means Canadians don’t just benefit from nation-building projects, they can invest in them. ✅ And we’re keeping our communities safe, cracking down on financial crime and fraud with a new dedicated federal agency and more boots on the ground. This is how we are building Canada strong for all, and we are just getting started.

@canshareholder @fordnation I'm not shitting on the east citizens, I'm shitting on the east politicians. They're slogan slinging snakes that have no business controlling a province, let alone a country's wealth.

@NRCan So nothing will get done. Perfect. I think we should have 8 experts and a bunch of polls done. Once that's done let's hire a bunch of consultants to analyze the experts and polls. Then do nothing and waste millions. Classic Canada. I can be an expert if you'd like!

Jeromy (Pathfinder) Farkas
City of Calgary Announces Leadership Transition and Launch of CAO Recruitment April 29, 2026 Calgary — The City of Calgary is beginning a structured leadership transition for its senior administrative team and launching a recruitment process for its next Chief Administrative Officer (CAO). City Council and current CAO David Duckworth have mutually agreed to begin a planned leadership transition from The City. CAO Duckworth’s last day will be December 1, 2026. If a successor is identified earlier, Mr. Duckworth will support a smooth transition in an advisory capacity. Chief Operating Officer Stuart Dalgleish has also announced his retirement, with his final day on June 12, 2026. Mayor Jeromy Farkas thanked both leaders for their service. “Stuart and David have both made important contributions to this organization and to The City. I want to thank them for their leadership during a period of significant work and change,” said Mayor Farkas. “This is a steady and planned leadership transition. Calgary is entering a new phase of growth, and we are taking this step to ensure our organization is well-positioned for the work ahead.” David Duckworth, Chief Administrative Officer, said: “Public service has been central to my career, and it has been an honour to serve Calgarians and work alongside Calgary’s dedicated public servants. I truly believe this is a natural time for this transition, as the organization enters its next phase. I remain focused on continuity, a smooth handover, and leaving the organization well positioned to serve Calgarians for generations to come.” Stuart Dalgleish, Chief Operating Officer, said: “My 37 years at The City have been more than a career – they’ve reflected a personal calling and proud commitment to public service. I am grateful to the people and teams, whether internal or external to The City, with whom I have had the privilege of working with and serving Calgarians together, and from whom I was fortunate to learn and become a better person. I’m confident our City team is well positioned to work towards an always bright and better future for Calgary.” The transition comes at a time of significant progress across The City, including major infrastructure work to strengthen Calgary’s water system, ongoing service delivery, and continued management of complex operational challenges. Calgary is approaching a milestone of two million residents and is entering a new four-year Council term. This transition is intended to align leadership with the city’s growth and long-term priorities. City services will continue without disruption. A clear interim leadership structure is in place to ensure continuity. Council will conduct a comprehensive recruitment process for the next CAO. The search will focus on identifying a leader with experience managing growth, delivering major infrastructure, and leading a high-performing municipal organization. Further updates will be provided as the recruitment process progresses.
