Calgary is a city where things get done. We consistently punch above our weight, driving Canada's economic growth, leading industrial innovation, and embracing bold entrepreneurial risks. As Alberta’s economic engine, Calgary fuels the province’s prosperity across sectors ranging from energy to technology. Yet despite this outsized impact, Calgary still struggles to secure a fair deal from the provincial government—one that reflects our true value and ensures equitable investment in our city's future.

The Calgary Party proposes a new - and better - deal for Calgary. This will entail:

• Redefining and strengthening the Calgary-Alberta Relationship - Calgary deserves a stronger partnership with the provincial government, one that reflects our economic contributions and helps us thrive. As the province's largest economic hub, Calgary plays a critical role in driving Alberta’s growth, from attracting global investment to fostering innovation across industries. Calgarians are not just ambassadors of Alberta; they are leading contributors to the province's long-term success. By building a municipal-provincial relationship that empowers Calgary and its residents to reach their full potential, we can ensure that both the city and the province thrive.
• Keeping a fair share of property taxes in Calgary - Currently, 35% of the property taxes collected from Calgarians goes directly to the province — a significant portion that could be better used to support the essential services and infrastructure we rely on every day. It’s time to keep that money in Calgary to invest in critical projects, prevent unnecessary tax hikes, and secure our future growth. By retaining a fair share of our tax revenue, we can build the infrastructure we need, enhance public services, and accelerate our city’s economic development.

By implementing a better deal for Calgary, we can build a city that not only meets the needs of residents today but also lays a strong foundation for future generations. A new deal for Calgary is not just an investment in our city; it’s a commitment to our shared prosperity and a recognition of the vital role we play in Alberta’s success.
