Rick McIver, Ward 12
SE Calgary News offers a regular series of political commentary and inteviews with southeast Calgary MPs, MLAs, aldermen and community leaders called 3 Minutes With… The intent is to provide a forum where our elected officials can explain in detail their position on issues of the day, to move beyond the “sound bite.”
In this segment, Ward 12 Ald. Ric McIver talks about his proposal to have the City of Calgary adopt a more rigorous budgeting process. This has been a pet peeve of the southeast alderman for several years. He argues there are savings to be had in the City budget if Council will just direct the administration to look for them.
In the past City officials have not been enthusiastic about modifying their budget process. They say the process in place works well and City Hall is already running lean.

McIver should be our next mayor. He’s one of the few fiscally responsible members on council. Maybe it’s time we started the party system in municipal politics in order to identify the socialist ideologues who are the majority of city council.
