This is phenomenal. Despite a growing economy and increasing population, Calgary has brought rents down 10% y-o-y thanks to new supply from zoning relaxation, office to residential conversions etc. #yyccc deserves a lot of credit for this. #costofliving

1. I wish you the best of luck in your campaign. 2. I hope that, if elected, you won't lead with division, conspiracy, and hyperbole. Curiousity, compassion, and dedication to truth and integrity is the best path forward. 3. Orwell is rolling in his grave at your reference 😀

Alberta renters don’t need more help, they need adequate rights. In my latest story i delve into why all renters, regardless of their income, would benefit from rent control. 👇

Albertans have good reason to be angry: their real wages are down 10%, their minimum wage is frozen, their inflation is worst in Canada, their health care's at risk. None of that was caused by the rest of Canada. My take in today's Toronto Star: thestar.com/business/opini…. #cdnecon

Seeing prominent candidates and parties retreat to policies of exclusionary zoning, discrimination, and economic segregation under the guise of "progress" and "compassion" is painful. Have some courage, it might just inspire people. #yyccc
