Gondek was first elected mayor in October 2021, becoming Calgary's 37th mayor and its first female mayor.
Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek has announced that she will run for re-election in next year's mayoral race. She expressed her desire to continue serving as the city's mayor and may begin assembling a campaign team early in 2025.
Gondek was first elected mayor in October 2021, becoming Calgary's 37th mayor and its first female mayor. Prior to her tenure as mayor, she served as a city councilor for Ward 3 from 2017 to 2021. Throughout her time in office, she has faced various criticisms on several issues.
She has been criticized on topics such as the Israel-Hamas conflict, the city's single-use goods laws, blanket rezoning policies, and the Bearspaw Feederman incident. Earlier this year, a local business owner even filed a petition to remove her from office, though the effort was unsuccessful.
