Serving Alberta’s Capital City for a third term, Mayor Stephen Mandel has led the City of Edmonton since October 2004.
Mayor Mandel is a strong advocate for Alberta municipalities, ensuring they receive a fair share of funding to pay for vital infrastructure and community services.
Mayor Mandel also celebrates Edmonton’s arts community and multiculturalism as great strengths of our City. He is a strong advocate and voice for low-income families, seniors and those in need. He also works towards diversifying our local economy, and attracting more young people to Edmonton.
Before running for public office, Mayor Mandel was an accomplished businessman bringing 30 years of private sector experience to City Hall.
He has a bold, long-term vision for our city, and is notoriously honest about his opinions.
Mayor Mandel sat down with Global Edmonton’s Shaye Ganam, Vinesh Pratap, and Emily Mertz, for a candid discussion on our City, major projects like The Quarters and the downtown arena project, his relationship with other levels of government, and his thoughts on seeking re-election.
