Quote:
He introduced four candidates for councillor positions during an evening event at Platform Calgary. Thiessen noted none of them are councillors that are currently holding a position at city hall.
Those candidates are DJ Kelly in Ward 4 who narrowly lost to Coun. Sean Chu in the same district in 2021 and Heather McRae, who has worked with the Calgary Downtown Association, in Ward 7.
Contesting Ward 11 is podcast editor and public transit advocate Alex Williams and running in Ward 13 is entrepreneur Elliot Weinstein.
