Everyday Calgarians for real solutions
What We Believe
Non-Partisan
Calgary’s future is non-partisan. That means we’re not affiliated with a specific ideology or political party. We believe that good ideas can come from anywhere and may not fit neatly into ideological boxes. Real solutions are about working together, not getting stuck in a quagmire of us vs. them.
Pragmatic
For Calgary’s Future, pragmatism is about prioritizing progress. It’s about dealing with challenges in a reasonable and logical way. Step by step, we can create real change that will add up to larger victories.
Solution Focused
To address the challenges our communities face, we need to identify solutions and take collective action. By focusing on results, we can find common ground and work together for our common interests.
Who We Are
Calgary’s Future is a network of everyday Calgarians. We use our voices to speak up for things we care about – important issues like housing affordability, public transportation, and creating a liveable future.
By joining together, we can get our voices heard, hold our leaders accountable, and advocate for real, pragmatic solutions to challenges that impact all of us.
Together, let’s make our city a thriving, accessible, and sustainable place for all of us.

Alex Shevalier
Team Lead
My name is Alex, and I’m a proud Calgarian. Years ago I got involved in political organizing because I love this city, and I want to see it thrive. I’ve been president of the Calgary District Labour Council for ten years, and have seen firsthand how resilient our city is. With your help, we can get our City Council on the same page.
Calgary is facing a lot of challenges. Housing prices are out of control, infrastructure needs updating, and our transit system needs to be expanded to make sure our city stays accessible. We need a strong, forward thinking City Council who can work together to come up with innovative solutions. By using our voices together, we can hold our leaders accountable and shape Calgary’s Future.

Community Liaison
My name is Reframe, and I’m the Community Liaison for Calgary’s Future. I love getting out in the community and talking to Calgarians about making our city better.
More often than not, you can find me hanging out at the library. I spend a lot of time reading up on municipal politics, researching policies, and analyzing spreadsheets. Did I mention that I love spreadsheets?
I’m proud to be associated with hardworking Calgarians who are inspired to make our city the best it can be. Together, let’s shape Calgary’s future!
How did Calgary’s Future start?
Calgary’s Future began as a third party advertiser in the 2021 municipal election. Since then, it’s evolved to become a community advocacy organization. That means it’s a group of local people speaking up for things they care about.
It was started by a group of local unions – working people who want to make a difference. But anyone can be part of Calgary’s Future. It’s a citywide movement.
Who funds Calgary’s future?
Calgary’s Future is funded by Calgarians for a Progressive Future, a coalition of local unions representing thousands of working Calgarians.
We’re proud to be backed by working Calgarians of diverse backgrounds and to be making our city better for all working people in Calgary.
