While I pride myself as a person who can work with anyone, and I have previously met or worked with all but one of the current leading candidates for mayor, I am happy to support Brian Thiessen.

Brian is the former chair of the Calgary Police Commission, so he knows how to work in City governance and coordinate a large group like City Council. He is the managing partner for one of the largest law firms in Calgary, so he knows how to run a big business. He was also named Citizen of the Year in 2020 for his volunteer efforts. But the main reason I support Brian is that he is one of the most collaborative individuals I've had the opportunity to work with. He has done an excellent job involving all councillor candidates of The Calgary Party in decisions during the election and steering us to being ready to hit the ground running as councillors when elected.
