Jeromy Farkas, Calgary's recently elected mayor, reflects on his first 100 days in office and makes the case for a post-partisan style of politics—one focused on execution and governing within clear jurisdictional limits, rather than culture wars or ideological signaling.

From confronting a looming water infrastructure crisis, to cutting a proposed tax increase, and reversing Calgary's blanket housing rezoning policy; Farkas explains why textbook solutions sometimes fail in practice, and why municipal governments can still deliver results even as higher levels of government stall.
