From Father to Fighter
Hello, my name is Mahmoud Mourra, and I'm a proud father of five. I've proudly raised my children in Ward 10.
My eldest son, now 23, was recently married—and during that experience, I saw firsthand just how difficult it is for young Calgarians to build a life in this city. I still have two young sons and two daughters at home. They are everything to me, and I'll always do whatever it takes to protect them, support them, and help build a better future for them.
Like any parent in Calgary, I want what's best for my children: safe and affordable homes, strong schools, vibrant welcoming neighborhoods. But most importantly, I want them to live in a city where they can grow, thrive, and help shape the future of our communities.
Why I'm Running
I've lived in Calgary for 25 years. In that time, I've seen politicians come and go—each promising change, yet very little ever improves. We hear the same speeches year after year, but we don't see results. And worst of all, there's little transparency or accountability in our local government.
Nowhere is this more obvious than in the northeast—especially here in Ward 10, which includes Abbeydale, Coral Springs, Marlborough, Marlborough Park, Mayland Heights, Monterey Park, Pineridge, Rundle, Temple, Vista Heights, and Whitehorn.
Our communities have been overlooked for far too long. Despite being home to many of Calgary's hardest-working residents—especially in construction and labour—we lack the same resources, services, and investment that other areas receive.
We face:
- A leisure centre that can't meet the needs of our population
- Limited youth spaces and public amenities
- Some of the highest crime rates in the city
- Underfunded parks and playgrounds
And still, we pay our taxes, show up to work, and raise our families with dignity.
We Deserve Better
That's why I'm running to represent Ward 10—to be your voice and to ask the hard questions: Why doesn't the northeast have any major educational institutions like other areas? Why are no major city festivals hosted in our neighborhoods? Why are our parks and public spaces so often neglected?
The truth is simple: if we don't speak up, we won't be heard.
A Voice for Families
As a father, I'm doing this for my kids—and for yours. I will fight for Ward 10 families because I am one of you.
Vote Mahmoud Mourra, your candidate for Ward 10. A fighter who will fight your fight.
