80% of Calgarians opposed blanket rezoning. Dozens of communities pushed back. Thousands spoke up. But some progressives are still outraged that mayoral candidates are listening? Maybe it’s time to say we need a more focused and dynamic solution to housing than rezoning. #yyccc #yyc2025

Big weekend as Calgary hosted the Provincial Fencing Championships! Huge kudos to @FencingCalgary for making the sport affordable/accessible: providing gear/rentals so more kids can get started. As a parent, I know how lucky we are. Let’s keep opening doors for all kids in sport. More access needed!

As part of our ever expanding Alberta Disadvantage, we’ve already moved to paying for COVID-19 vaccines. Danielle’s trying to pull us out of Canada, one service at a time.

I didn't realize it's rare for folks who are not first responders to participate. Very cool that @jeromyyyc.bsky.social is welcomed to be a part of this. And challenging Chief Dongworth up all 57 floors!

Give me a mayor who takes what communities say and think seriously.

A dark blue campaign graphic titled “Policy Brief” with a subtitle:
Built for Belonging – “A vision for a safer Calgary” (with "safer" underlined in blue).

Below, the text reads:
"When we invest early—in mental health, housing, mentorship, and prevention—we not only reduce crime, we build opportunities, we keep families together, and we strengthen Calgary at its roots" (bolded and underlined in red).

Jeromy continues:
"As mayor, this is my vision for a safer Calgary—from Dover to downtown, from playgrounds to train platforms" (highlighted in yellow and blue).

The page ends with the multicolour campaign website: OURPATHFORWARD.CA.

As Calgary prepares to welcome up to a million new residents, we must choose: keep reacting to crime—or lead with action that prevents it.

I’m releasing Built for Belonging, a 25-point plan for a safer Calgary.

A pride day sprouts a rainbow on a blue background with light blue stars over the rainbow. Under the rainbow is the Girl Guides of Canada logo - a white trefoil. The text reads “Everyone Belongs in Guiding”.

Heading to our first city wide fencing tournament. We’re excited - and deeply aware that this opportunity isn’t accessible to every kid. Sport should build community, not reinforce barriers. We need to talk about the cost of participation and who’s getting left out. #youthsports #fencing #yycsports

Alberta doesn’t have a ‘sexually explicit books in schools problem’ — it has a fear-of-students-thinking problem.

Removing books about 2SLGBTQ+ lives, race, and identity is about control, not care.
Kids deserve books that reflect reality, not censorship. #abed #LetThemRead
