Sonya Sharp is running to be Mayor for the City of Calgary, after spending most of her adult life working her way up through the ranks at City Hall. This is her second appearance on the show, and last time she appeared she had yet to decide fully whether throw her hat into the ring or not. Calgary should be grateful she did. Sonya intends to RESCIND the Climate Emergency, previously declared by Jyoti Gondek, on Day 1. She regrets having voted in favor of the Notice of Motion and we dive further into that time. She also intends to RESCIND blanket rezoning, as many of the candidates do. We spend a large portion of this discussion talking about Safety and Crime and the City. She plans to hire 500 new Police Officers. She also CLAPS back at Jeff Davison for accusations of a Conflict of Interest regarding Communities First lead volunteer Marc Henry, and his involvement with Think HQ, a firm currently contracted to Enmax. Lastly, I informed her I was concerned about another Vote-Splitting scenario that seems to be rearing it's ugly head again as we head into yet another divided Calgary Election. I for one am happy Sonya is running for the City of Calgary, I truly believe she has the constituents best interests at heart, as does her team at Communities first, that could help change the voting landscape the City has been craving for so long. Sonya can be found currently knocking on doors, doing live debates, making public announcements and working her tail off to earn our trust. Enjoy this listen, it's important folks!!!!
