Calgary Conversations The City of Calgary

Calgary is a growing and diverse city. The population growth means our city faces pressures like never before. Diverse backgrounds and life experiences shape our sense of safety. Crime and violence on transit, social disorder, and concerns stemming from addiction or mental health can contribute to an uneasy atmosphere. We are working to remove these barriers by ensuring Calgarians feel safe, connected, supported, and that they belong.

In this episode, we talk about our investments in people, public spaces and emergency response and enforcement with Community Safety and Wellbeing Lead Kay Choi.

Calgary is one of the most livable cities on the planet. As one of Canada's fastest-growing cities, we're building to meet the needs of our expanding population, striving to create a vibrant, affordable place for soon-to-be 2 million residents.

There’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes to make this happen. That’s why The City of Calgary is introducing a new podcast called Calgary Conversations, an insider pass to the heart of Calgary’s City Hall. This episode features an
interview with Chief Administrative Officer David Duckworth that sheds light on the priority areas that are shaping our city’s future. This includes discussions on housing, public safety, downtown revitalization and even how City finances are managed.
