MEDIA RELEASE
Gary is a familiar face to Calgarians as the City Hall Reporter on Global TV for 40 years. He was a trusted journalist watching, listening, and learning about the policies and the politics.
“I know how City Council works. I will use that experience to get the job done for the people of Ward 8. I want to make lives better by giving back to my community and to my City.”
Gary still lives in the Ward 8 neighbourhood of Cliff Bungalow Mission. He is a community builder who helped start the Lilac Festival and the 2013 Calgary Flood Concert at McMahon Stadium.
Gary will build livable and likeable neighbourhoods. He will work for an inclusive and diverse City. He supports equal opportunities and socially responsible prosperity for all Calgarians.
“As a journalist, I was not afraid to ask tough questions at City Hall. As the Ward 8 Councillor, I will keep asking tough questions at City Hall.
“I battled for all Calgarians and gave a voice to people who had no voice. Now, I want to be your voice for Ward 8. The voice that you know and trust to get the job done on City Council.”
