Mayor Jyoti Gondek told an audience of the city’s business community that Calgary needs to be “telling our own story,” to help change perceptions of investors elsewhere.
In her speech, Gondek said there was surprise from those learning Calgary is the third-most diverse city in Canada, with the fastest growing tech sector in North America.“‘Calgary?’ they asked. ‘Indeed,’ I responded,” she told the room. Wednesday’s speech comes as work continues on a refresh of the city’s branding for several organizations, including Calgary Economic Development and Tourism Calgary.
Who cares what Toronto thinks of Calgary, they are cheap and mediocre anyways.
Nothing to attract investment here as long as you're still the mayor.
Its one thing attracting investment, its another too keep it. Calgary is not attractive, drive up center or 16ave and its weeds, graffiti and decay. Downtown is a warehouse for the mentally ill. When center street is reduced to lane in each direction, downtown viability is done
She's probably not the one to do this. Worst mayor ever.
Take a break you globalist.
Yes tell the country how you messed up the arena deal.
Hey jodi since the cgy owns exmax how about having a talk with there board heads about them hiking there rates when ppl r still struggling 4 exmax 2 do this is absolutely irresponsible of them & absolutely stupid move !😭😤🤬
Can we get someone else to tell our story? Somehow she managed to screw up a done deal we had on a new arena. Can we just admit attracting investment really isn’t her thing?
Can she and her city council friends go out and fill potholes instead? That would be far more useful.
Wow. The woman-hating old guys are out in full force right off the hop! Not one of these chimps has a clue how hard the job is.
Get rid of Gondek. That will help investment
With her calling the shots investment will just run away lol
As long as she's in charge, good luck. She's a Trudope puppet and has no clue whats she's doing.
