CALGARY A former Calgary city councillor who launched an unsuccessful bid for the mayor s chair in 2017 is once again throwing his hat into the ring, running for the vacant Ward 10 seat in this October s civic election. Andre Chabot who served as councillor in Ward 10 from 2005 to 2017 made the announcement on social media Friday. From having been in the private sector for the last three years, it really opened up my eyes to the economic realities that we re facing, he said. I don t think members of council are properly aligned. Former councillor Ray Jones, who stepped down in October 2020 due to health issues, became the Ward 10 representative in the 2017 election after area boundaries were redrawn. Chabot said he made his unsuccessful bid for mayor because of that redistribution.
