It’s a municipal election year in Alberta and as the big day approaches for us here in Airdrie, there are a few things each voter must keep in mind before they head to the polls.
Lovepreet Deo used to be a little girl who endured stares from people, due to her cerebral palsy, and kept her dreams to herself. “I was in my own little world, I didn't open up to anybody,” recalls Deo. Deo knew no one when she moved to Airdrie with her family as a 27-year-old in 2008.
We are pleased to introduce to you the 2026 recipients of the Awesome Airdrie Kids Awards. They were nominated by teachers, family, coaches and neighbours and show us that the youngest members of Airdrie’s community are compassionate, talented, hardworking, focused, caring, brave and more.
Ranging in age from 40-70 years, and beyond in Brandson’s case, this group of shinny supporters come from all walks of life - including farmers, lawyers, doctors, pharmacists, truck drivers, electricians and many more occupations.
