Calgary’s Municipal Election is happening in just a few weeks, on October 18th. Making Waves is hosting mayoral candidate Jyoti Gondek at an event just for women, especially young women who are first time voters, because this upcoming election is the most important election in a generation, and each vote will help determine the future of our city for decades.
Making Waves is a grassroots organisation that is centred on gender-equality and encourages women to speak up. On August 17th meet Jyoti Gondek in an exclusive and intimate backyard gathering (just 40 spots!) and join other women who believe in speaking up and making a difference.
Jyoti is a woman of colour who loves making waves. She has been unequivocal on issues of racism, calling out our Premier and his party. She has challenged fellow councillor Jeromy Farkas on his unprogressive views on parental leave (he is the only councillor who voted against parental leave). Jyoti recognizes that the Climate Crisis is a priority. She is speaking out about the latest decision from the UCP government to abandon covid testing and isolation, supporting students and parents who are concerned about the 4th pandemic wave. She also has ambitious and specific plans to re-invigorate Calgary through integrating issues of climate, business, innovation, vulnerable citizens and more.
We welcome all women, non-binary and gender non-conforming individuals. If you self identify as someone who would benefit from these conversations, we would love for you to join.
Not your first election? Bring a double vaccinated friend, daughter, friend’s daughter!
