Description
Member Event:
Today, 4.2 billion people reside in cities and towns, that's over 50% of the world's population. Who leads these major clusters? The mayors and councillors that you elect. Every vote counts and yours alone can make an impact. To build the resiliency needed to persevere and thrive in the face of devastating events like the pandemic, your home needs a leader who can confidently plan, manage, and forecast.
Today, 4.2 billion people reside in cities and towns, that's over 50% of the world's population. Who leads these major clusters? The mayors and councillors that you elect. Every vote counts and yours alone can make an impact. To build the resiliency needed to persevere and thrive in the face of devastating events like the pandemic, your home needs a leader who can confidently plan, manage, and forecast.
In this webinar, you'll learn about how the candidates for the upcoming Edmonton mayoral election will approach these issues and how your vote has the power to impact our city's present and future. We will review past mayoral chapters, elections won and lost, and their campaign plans.
As a bonus, we will have a unique opportunity to look at the 2021 Federal Election results (September 20th) and how Canadians appointed a new leader.
