Work from the agency included strategic communications advice, polling on key issues, and a new website for the mayor’s office, outside of the website provided by the City of Calgary.

The Calgary Party claims the content closely mirrors Gondek’s campaign platform, and questioned whether the website was for mayoral communication or “early campaign activity.”
I’ve been pretty open about my regret in voting for Gondek and clear that I won’t be this time, but come on. She’s running for re-election. If she believes that what she has been doing and plans to do in the future as mayor — should she keep that post — will get her elected to a second term, would a reasonable person expect her re-election platform to deviate from her current policies and goals as mayor?

“Hey Calgary, I’ve been your mayor for four years, and if you like what I’ve done in that time, well hold onto your hats because I’m completely changing my plans if you re-elect me.”
