## Resource

Calgary’s city council is set to hold a special meeting on September 8th to address a major leak of sensitive 2027-2030 budget details, sparking fears of a potential property tax hike and exposing a serious privacy breach. The mayor calls it a threat to staff and the city’s legal standing, while council member Landon Johnston admits to leaking the info to avoid hiding things from the public — though he faces no immediate removal under provincial law. The real focus? Damage control and preventing future leaks, as the city navigates the delicate balance between transparency and confidentiality in financial planning.
