Leadership
We must lead progressively in the conservation and use of the environment (air, water, soil) and that the City must ensure the development of cultural and recreational facilities for a dynamic and vibrant Calgary. Through conservative fiscal policies I will support effective fiscal budget control, the building of modern infrastructure and transportation policies to effectively facilitate the movement of people, goods, and services.
To achieve these goals, I will foster proper communications with stakeholders through the City of Calgary's Engagement process. My business experience in the energy industry will serve as a form of effective corporate governance in the decision making process.
As your elected representative, I pledge to provide effective political leadership, corporate governance decision-making with a forward thinking vision, and a bold approach of transparency and accountability to work on YOUR behalf -- as a representative of your needs -- as citizens of Ward 11 and the City of Calgary.
As your next Councillor, my vision is a vibrant city with sustainable economic growth for its citizens and proper development of a housing and commercial industry -- which includes plans for affordable housing and environmental standards -- to ensure a high quality of life for Calgarians.
