Do you have two hours to give this week?

This is it. This is the week that decides Calgary’s future.

Every doorknock, every conversation, every postcard dropped moves us closer to victory.

Our volunteer schedule is LIVE.

Message from Karla Marx:
I’m voting for Jyoti Gondek for Mayor. She’s been a rock solid supporter of the queer community.
I’m voting for Harrison Clark in my ward (9).

If you’re interested in the Calgary election, the @ragyyc.bsky.social & I volunteered to put together #Indigenous questions around #Reconciliation to ask #YYCCC & CBE candidates. I would add the answers you get if you don’t see your ward candidate listed here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
