Mr. Mike Ellis - MLA for Calgary-West

Heavenly Father, with thanks and appreciation we bring MLA Mike Ellis before you. We ask that you be with him as he takes on the challenges of his office. We also pray that you will be noticeably present in Mr. Ellis’ daily affairs. Please help his family and he adjust to his new responsibilities. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Mike Ellis was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Alberta in the constituency of Calgary-West on October 27, 2014.

He is currently a member of the Standing Committee on the Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund and the Standing Committee on Privileges and Elections, Standing Orders and Printing.

Prior to serving with the Legislative Assembly, Mr. Ellis spent 12 years with the Calgary Police Service. During his tenure he served eight years in the position of constable and three as patrol sergeant. In recognition of his service he received a 10-year distinguished service medal in 2013.

During his policing career his focus was primarily on community policing, which included working with some of Calgary’s most vulnerable citizens through the Alberta Secretariat for Action on Homelessness. He also trained other officers in how to help victims of crime.
