The president and publisher is Doug Firby, who was the editorial page editor at the Calgary Herald for seven years.

John Stewart is the editor in chief. Stewart spent more than three and a half decades working in the newspaper industry, as reporter, editor, columnist and finally as managing editor of the Red Deer Advocate.

The chief correspondent is Mario Toneguzzi, a former business reporter for the Calgary Herald who covered real estate news.
