  • Summary

  • Dan McLean grew up living the farm life just outside of Camrose, Alberta, Canada. He grew up learning the values of work ethic and respecting others. Fast forward to his earlier working years, he took a chance on selling golf-carts, of all things. And he never looked back. His business rapidly exploded as he couldn't keep his farmland full of enough golf carts to keep up with the orders. His crowining achievement was winning a successful bid to work the Vancouver Olympics in 2010. He eventually sold the business and decided what the heck to do now that his three children were all grown up. Dan McLean decided to enter politics, and we dive right in on this one. He had always contemplated with the idea of politics, as his father himself ran at one time only losing by a few votes. So Dan entered into the Calgary Municipal election in 2021 and defeating long time incumbent Diane Colley-Urquhart....by a landslide. Dan is known to be extremely outspoken, and a man of principle. We get into everything from the muddy world of municipal politics, the botched Calgary Flames arena deal, Jyoti Gondek, and her climate agenda, Dan's voting record, the Hateful 8, and most importantly we really beat up the current council plans for the Blanket Rezone that will go through to Public Hearings in Calgary on April 22nd 2024. Sit back and enjoy because Dan is a real breath of fresh air when it comes to politicians. Polite. Honest. Opinionated. Decisive. Rational. and yes even sometimes controversial but he is not afraid!
