I wonder about Farkas from a backbone perspective. Does he have it in him to stand up for Calgary, as the province continues to try to push their way into municipal politics. But I'm also reminded that he's only one vote on the council.

Gondek's first term was not that stellar, but it's the unknown of other candidates that worries me. At least with her, you kind of know what you're getting. I'd like to go with Thiessen but wondering if that's just throwing away a vote.

For councillor I'm leaning towards Dan or Joey.
For school trustee, Jenny Regal.
Gondek was also kind of like the provincial NDP in their one term, much less bad in the later half than they were at the start. She was far too idealistic and performative after first getting elected, but seemed to tone that down as time went on and the reality of the job sunk in
