Not yet collected for this person: statements, campaign commitments and policy leadership. A gap in the collected evidence is not evidence that none exist.

Only reviewed policy choices are scored. Each independent decision family counts once per measure; choices within one budget or policy package share that family’s weight. statements, promises, absences and contextual amendments do not contribute. Two decisions are the minimum for a position. The sensitivity range shows the score after removing one decision at a time; it is not a statistical confidence interval or a prediction.

Conduct and accountability

Every record
  • Jul 5, 2022Code of conduct findingC2022-0851

    Council released Investigation Report 3 as a reprimand, asked Councillor Carra to publish a letter of apology to the complainants, removed him from committee chair positions until Oct. 25, 2022, and required respectful workplace and social media training.

  • Jul 5, 2022Code of conduct findingC2022-0843

    Council released Investigation Report 2 as a reprimand, asked Councillor Carra to publish a letter of apology to Calgarians and required records management and ethics training. A later motion to refer the report to the Calgary Police Service and the Minister of Municipal Affairs was defeated 7–7.

Code of conduct findings are those the City publishes, which are only investigations that found a breach; the code was repealed in May 2025, when the Province removed municipal codes of conduct (Bill 50). Votes link to Council's recorded decision.
