"In particular, we feel that city council has given directive and voted in support of lots of policies and programs and plans that support active transportation and those items are not reflected in the current budget." #yycbike calgary.ctvnews.ca/calgary-c…

Open letter to City Manager David Duckworth as well as the Offices of the Mayor & Councillors. We have questions about active transportation spending the #yyccc budget. We look forward to responses from City Admin and City Council.

As the @cityofcalgary heads into budget talks and affordable housing continues to be a priority - this story is especially timely and important. What will happen to Bridgeland Place?

Gentrification is a topic we rarely discuss in Calgary, but it’s alive and kicking in our “revitalized” inner-city neighbourhoods, where low income tenants are displaced and an uncertain future awaits. Read all about it in my latest story for @TheTyee thetyee.ca/News/2022/11/17/B…
