She gone.
Immediately retiring. Sounds like the gravy train is definitely done at CoC.
Milked it dry. Can't say a single thing she did was well done.

A small price to pay compared to the damage she did to the city annual while employed

My personal hatred goes back to a speech she gave to a room full of job seekers where she told us that we "had the skills of yesterday, and that's why Calgary has trouble building a technology economy." Pretty tone deaf, and unhelpful.

She's said more foolish things since in a variety of print and televised interviews but that was the root of it for me.

Tldr: she hurt my feelings.

No idea who she is or what she did, so no comment.

But I'd like to fire the guy who remodelled the Anderson C-train station so that people could throw garbage into the rafters and have it never be retrieveable.

“Mary has been a remarkable leader for our organization for the past 11 years, and was instrumental in CED’s many successes during that time,” chair Joe Lougheed said.

Funny how none of her "many successes" were notable enough to make it into the article and her most well known achievement was her leave of absence for the failed Olympic bid. As much as we loathe that she's heading out retire comfortably on taxpayer time, don't blame the players, blame the game as it is what it is. If free money is being handed out people are always going to take it.
