Clark Bezo is campaigning for ‘No politics, just progress’.

The engineer by trade spent most of his career working at the Evraz Steel Plant after serving in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) for 13 years.

Most recently, Bezo founded a small business assisting condominium associations with financial planning and capital projects.

He says his experience gives him insights into the local economy and business needs that he will need to serve the residents of the 10th Ward.

Jerry Flegel is returning to civic politics after a four-year hiatus. Flegel served as alderman for the 10th Ward from 2003 to 2020.

Flegel is a past president of the North Regina Little League and Regina Crime Stoppers. In addition, he has been actively involved in the Ward 10 business community for the past 35 years.

“Now is the time to bring me back,” he said in his introduction.

“We could see six new councilors with no experience. The last four years have made it clear that experience is essential.”
