Former Calgarian here... The city isn't woke, but the council is. There were so many candidates fielded that it watered things down to the point that the commie Jyoti Gondek won.
Calgary is very conservative, and Alberta is the leading conservative province in the country that wnt so far as to tell Ottawa, no fuck you, we are not following your laws, what are you going to do about it. To which the PM cried.
Calgary city council who installed the mayor is very left wing through and so are the police. Everyone in the city hates them.
Not an expert on Canada but I thought Calgary was in a more conservative province (province is the equivalent of a state right)?

The city is getting pretty woke. My suburb has a bunch of NDP signs and I've only seen 1 UCP one.
I could smell where things were going, so we sold our home in 2021 and got the fuck out.
Oh gotcha. Yea even in deep red areas here in the US very liberal councils or school boards pop up

A province has different voting rights and less autonomy from the country.
