How do we find out which candidates will work with communities to address the issues that are impacting our city? It is simple, we ask them – with all of you present, watching and remembering what is said. Join us as we ask mayoral candidates how they will work with us and address the issues our communities have prioritized.

Quality public education has become an important topic for all of our communities as we face how the low levels of education funding have impacted our classrooms and teachers.
We invite you to get involved in the fight for quality public education for all. What can you do? Here are some possibilities:
1. Write the Minister of Education and Premier Smith to ask for a fair deal for teachers
2. Write your MLA and ask them to speak up for increased public education funding.
3. Create a Video about why Public Education Matters and share it with the Alberta Teachers Association. The vocal video will provide prompts and questions to guide your submission.
4. Attend one of the Trustee Forums hosted by the Public Teachers, ATA Local 38. These 90-minute Zoom webinars are designed to provide voters with a clear understanding of where candidates stand on the challenges facing Calgary’s public schools. Join us to make an informed choice in the upcoming Trustee election and to show your support for strong, equitable, and well-resourced public education

The day honours the children who never returned home and survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process.
During the month of July and August, three floral arrangements were sent to members who had extended illnesses while seven arrangements were sent to members who lost love ones.
