Time to get things done.

No more waiting. It’s time to deliver real results for a growing Airdrie.

Airdrie’s rapid growth is a huge opportunity—and it calls for proactive, forward-thinking leadership to keep up with the momentum. We need to invest in stronger infrastructure, better services, and smarter planning to ensure our city remains livable and thriving. Right now, we’re at a stage where we need to be everywhere all at once to meet these demands, and that takes real coordination and commitment from City Hall.

It’s a big job, but with strong leadership and your support, we’re ready to rise to the challenge and move forward together.

What Airdrie needs now is clear, decisive action. We can’t afford to sit back and wait for change, or the promises of change. It’s time to roll up our sleeves, truly listen to our community, and actually deliver those results that make a difference.

The time for talk has passed. The time for action is now.

We will make progress together

"I’m running for Airdrie City Council because I believe in responsible leadership that’s rooted in community, transparency, and action. After 20+ years in the private sector and now deeply involved in Airdrie through volunteer work and grassroots initiatives, I’ve seen firsthand both the challenges our city faces and the incredible potential we have.

This isn’t political for me…my city and my neighbours will never be about politics. It’s about doing what’s right and getting the best results for everyone.

And I’m not here for headlines or to make empty promises. I’m here to listen, engage, and deliver results. Clear and consistent communication is key, not just with us as residents, but also with other levels of government. We need strong relationships and an open dialogue to ensure Airdrie’s priorities are heard and supported across the board.

Voting for me is a vote for someone who understands how to manage resources wisely, who listens to your everyday voices, and for someone who’s ready to bring practical and forward-thinking solutions to the table. Lets focus on creating a more connected Airdrie, where progress isn’t just talked about, it’s delivered in ways that make an actual difference in people’s lives."

David is a thoughtful, resourceful and community minded person and someone I’m lucky to have as a friend and colleague. David is always professional and prompt but relatable too. We’ve worked together on the ‘Airdrie back to School Clothing Drive and Swap’ for the last two years and he puts his time and heart into making sure our donations are collected and available to those that can use them. David and I work as REALTORS in Airdrie and he always has the time and energy to discuss business, help, and be a valuable voice of reason. He brings tenacity, consistency, and dedication to his own business to thrive in a self employed landscape in a way that many don’t have the courage to do. David is kind, caring, and empathetic too, and I consider myself lucky to count him as my friend. He goes the extra mile for me, his friends, and his community in so many ways.

I’m not usually someone who gets involved in politics, but I’m genuinely happy to support David for Airdrie City Council. I first met him three years ago when my family was going through an interesting real estate situation. Without a second thought, he stepped in and made sure we were completely taken care of. That’s just who he is: selfless, and ready to help others. Since then, I’ve seen him put that same energy into the community, whether it’s through his volunteering or co-founding a volunteer group to help local families and kids get clothes for back to school. I feel that if he decides to do something, it just gets done. Airdrie is lucky to have someone like him looking out for all of us.

David is a people leader and is very considerate when engaging with others. He enjoys organizing and leading several social activities and is always striving to improve. I feel that if he was elected to Airdrie Council, it will only make Airdrie stronger.
