Join Team Ferguson and Mayoral Candidate Brian Thiessen @briantyyc.bsky.social this Saturday in Mahogany from 10 AM โ 4 PM for a Super Canvass event!
Whether you're new to door knocking or a seasoned pro, this is a great chance to:

BRIAN THIESSEN FOR MAYOR ะฏะะ CALGARY PARTY Building a Bold Future We need to build a transit system that keeps up with Calgary. That means: โข Building the entire Green Line - from south to north including restoring the downtown tunnel โข Connecting our airport to rail. โข Expanding MAX routes across the city โข Investing in smart upgrades like signal priority and real-time info to make service faster and more reliable.
BRIAN THIESSEN FOR MAYOR ะฏะะ CALGARY PARTY 2 A Transit System that Respects the Rider Better transit doesn't always mean new routes - it means smarter service that works for riders. โข Boost frequency and reliability so riders aren't stuck waiting. โข Improve connections with better pathways, signage, and bike parking. โข Use real-time data to drive decisions and improve access across the city.
BRIAN THIESSEN FOR MAYOR ะฏะะ CALGARY PARZY 3 Safety by Design Transit should feel safe, day or night - for every rider, every route. โข Increase peace officer presence, improve lighting, and install more CCTV and help posts to deter crime and respond faster. โข Support transit operators with safety measures and mental health resources. โข Tackle root issues by linking safety, housing, and public health strategies - because safety starts before someone boards a bus.
BRIAN THIESSEN FOR MAYOR ะะะ CALGARY PARZY Make Using Transit Easier Let's make Calgary Transit easier, faster, and smarter for everyone. โข Boost frequency on LRT and MAX lines so riders never wait more than 10 minutes - 15 hours a day, 7 days a week. โข Expand real-time tracking and alerts so riders can plan with confidence, even during delays. โข Upgrade signage and station maps so getting around is simple and intuitive.
These seem like very reasonable things to do, and will make getting around Calgary on public transit better by improving safety, increasing frequency of service, and building a connected
City. Well done, @briantyyc.bsky.social @inamteja.bsky.social @hmcrae.bsky.social @alexwilliamsyyc.bsky.social
Itโs official, Iโm all in!
Iโll be on the ballot for Ward 6 City Councillor in October! Thank you to everyone who helped collect signatures and for those of you who validated my candidacy. Iโll be working every day between now and October 20th to earn your vote!

As Mayor, Iโll fight for Calgaryโs fair share โ with credibility, cooperation, and real plans. Letโs build a Calgary (and Canada) weโre proud of โ one that leads with vision, not fear. #thecalgaryparty #yyc2025
06.05.2025 15:52 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The Premier talks autonomy while ignoring treaty rights, trampling on cities, and pulling $2.1B from Calgaryโs Green Line. Her renewables ban scared off $33B in investment. This isnโt strategy โ itโs political theatre. #abpoli
06.05.2025 15:52 โ ๐ 6 ๐ 2 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Calgary is thriving โ in tech, energy innovation, arts, and more. People move here for opportunity, not chaos. We succeed by building bridges, not walls. Thatโs Albertaโs real story: resilience, optimism, and community. #yyccc
06.05.2025 15:52 โ ๐ 6 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Danielle Smithโs latest remarks are more of the same: divisive rhetoric, no real solutions. Instead of addressing Albertaโs challenges, she stokes separatist sentiment โ and itโs Calgarians who pay the price. We need leadership, not distraction. #yyc #ableg #cdnpoli
06.05.2025 15:52 โ ๐ 45 ๐ 11 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 1Calgary scored a D+ in financial transparency - it's time for change. This is why last fall we led with Budget Choice. Calgarians deserve transparency and accountability for how City Hall is spending. The Calgary Party and @briantyyc.bsky.social is committed to turning that D+ into an A+.
16.04.2025 22:45 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0For too long, Calgary City Hall has been stuck in gridlock โ endless bickering, missed opportunities, and a failure to deliver on what Calgarians need most.
That's why @briantyyc.bsky.social is stepping up - to be your next Mayor, and build a Calgary that works.

I am proud to lead a movement thatโs focused on building a Calgary that works for everyone. The Calgary Party is about teamwork, fresh ideas, and delivering results โ and together, we can get Calgary back on track.
Watch the video and join us -- let's build the Calgary we know is possible, together
Itโs time to stop the squabbling and start building the Calgary we know is possible. #YYC #ABPoli
17.03.2025 14:18 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The Calgary Party is ready to deliver leadership that listens, sets priorities, and gets things done.
โ
Invest in smart infrastructure
โ
Support thoughtful housing development
โ
Build a city that works for residents and businesses
Instead of delivering clear plans for growth, Councilโs dysfunction is holding Calgary back. Meanwhile, Calgary welcomed nearly 100,000 new residents last year.
We need clear priorities that align with growth โ not endless political squabbles. #CalgaryPolitics
Calgaryโs LAP process is broken. After years of consultation, City Council continues to stall, argue, and amend โ leaving Calgarians frustrated and their voices unheard. ๐งต #YYC #Calgary

Responding to tariffs isnโt just about defenseโitโs about positioning Calgary to lead. Letโs build a city that works for business, for workers, and for the future.
04.03.2025 21:51 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Albertaโs #Budget2025 should have prepared for this. Instead, it overlooked Calgaryโs rapid growth and failed to provide the investments we need to attract and retain talent, while pushing property taxes even higher .
04.03.2025 21:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Weโre thriving in tech and innovation in agrifood, energy and financial services โ Iโve seen and helped those companies grow. But resilience and innovation wonโt be enough this time. We need leadership that invests in Calgaryโs future - in housing, infrastructure and transit.
04.03.2025 21:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Calgary workers and business will take a direct hit in the face of tariffs. The Canadian Chamber reports that we will be the second hardest hit city in Canada, with our energy sector taking the hardest hit. Calgarians have been smart in the last decade. Weโve taken steps to diversify our economy.
04.03.2025 21:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0The backbone of Canadaโs economy is built in its municipalities. Cities like Calgary drive economic growth, innovation, and tradeโfueling both small and large businesses. In the face of this punitive and unnecessary trade war with the United States we must come together.

15.02.2025 16:15 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0. With the defeat of amendments to the Local Area Plans - this council voted: against housing, against affordability, and against Calgarians. If Council won't vote for LAPs that legalize transit oriented developments, then the Calgary Party will.
06.02.2025 02:12 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Watching City Council today stub their collective toes again with rezoning. Hundreds of homes killed. One vote. The dysfunction of this Council must end -- they can't align even their own plans to move in one direction
