Overall, 28 per cent of Calgarians approve of the performance of Calgary city council, versus 60 per cent that disapprove. Men and older voters are more negative in their appraisals, according to ThinkHQ.

According to the ThinkHQ survey, Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek’s approval started low and has declined ever since. Her December 2023 approval rating is at 30 per cent, with 61 per cent disapproval. The ThinkHQ release said that this is the lowest approval rating for a mayor in Calgary’s history.

The polling shows that the mayor’s disapproval is most concentrated in established communities with households earning more than $125,000 per year.
