We want to thank each and every child who

helped write this story. Over 1,600 kids across

all twelve wards shared their vision of what

kind of city they want to live in. This comic is as

much written by them as it is for them. Everyday

we make choices in the City Plan that will define

Edmonton for decades to come. Kids need to be

at the heart of those choices and that means

asking them what they think.

We also want to send appreciation to both

Superintendents Joan Carr from Edmonton

Catholic School District and Daryl Robertson

from Edmonton Public School Board who

provided the leadership and believed in making

this project a success. Additionally, we would

like to thank all of the administration and

dozens of teachers at 34 different fourth,

fifth, and sixth Grade EPSB and ECSD schools

that facilitated this activity with their students.

We thank you for your commitment to ensuring

the voices of children are taken seriously.

We Built a city!

“So what did your group make for the science fair?”

But we’re gonna need a time machine

to get there

you’re gonna want to suit up

for this

People have a lot of different

names for it

2 million people live here

So we built them a sustainable transportation network

But people still get around in different ways

There’s always stuff going on in the city

we built

and everyone is always welcome

Where are we going now? We’re already here. This

is how we power our city

But Ms. Q, we’ve gotta go back

Because Now we have to build it

I want to stay in the city you all have built

Why would we ever leave?
