An Edmonton city councillor who will be running for mayor later this year has launched his municipal political party.
Tim Cartmell unveiled a slate of candidates who will run in this fall's municipal election, including current city councillor Karen Principe and former Edmonton Police Association president Michael Elliott.
Cartmell, who represents Ward pihêsiwin in the city's southwest, said Tuesday he and his slate of candidates will strive to improve public safety, be more financially prudent and develop better construction plans for Edmonton residents.
'You're just going to see more for your money, more of the services that you expect the city to provide, more of what cities are actually supposed to do,' Cartmell told CTV News Edmonton on Tuesday at an event to introduce the Better Edmonton slate.
Tony Caterina, an ex-city councillor, and Andrew Knack, a current city councillor who represents Ward Nakota Isga, are also running for mayor as are Abdul-Malik Chukwudi and Omar Mohammad.
