What's Really at Stake in the Calgary Election | Kirk Lubimov | Citizen | 075
In this episode of Citizen, we sit down with special guest Kirk Lubimov, political analyst, to unpack Calgary’s high-stakes municipal election. For the first time, party labels will appear on ballots, creating both excitement and confusion among voters.Kirk brings his expertise to break down the issues shaping the race:
Blanket rezoning – the central flashpoint between faster housing growth and neighbourhood control.
City finances – rising taxes versus massive reserves, and what that says about the council’s priorities.
Public safety – how concerns on transit and downtown streets measure City Hall’s ability to deliver on basics.
Governance – the bigger question: should Calgary be run by centralized party machines or by councillors accountable to communities?
Together, we explore not just candidates and campaign strategies, but what’s really at stake: the future balance of power, priorities, and public trust in Calgary.
