Let's be honest: Winnipeg is built around the car. But Kenaston isn't jammed all day. It's jammed for an hour or two. That's a peak problem, and peak problems have cheaper fixes. Adaptive signals. Faster crash clearance on the bridge. Other ideas?

I support Miss Christine on this one. 🇯🇲
The outrage over her 15+ policy surprises me. She's an entrepreneur putting her own hard-earned money into a vision, and she gets to decide what that experience looks like.
I think it's a smart move. See why ⬇️ 1/

The human rights angle: Age and family status are protected in Manitoba, so a complaint is possible. But the Code allows exceptions when there's a "bona fide and reasonable cause." A quiet, dimly lit, 30-seat room with no kids' menu or change tables sounds pretty reasonable 3/

Unpopular opinion: permanent DST? Don't care.
I've lost family, friends. I've watched others leave far too soon, and some come close this year.
So every morning, I throw open the blinds and I'm grateful I'm still here.
Bonus: I'm catching a lot more sunrises...🌄

Ottawa just committed $1B+ to end homelessness in Winnipeg, with up to $800M for 2,000 housing units.
$400k per unit. Staggering. If you had that budget, how would you spend it to help the most people?
Build new? Repurpose older buildings? Where should they be located?
The other $200M earmarked for a new Centre for Mental Health and Addictions.

Gillingham lost Daniel McIntyre & Fort Rouge-East Fort Garry with votes below his city wide average - but he still got 7709 votes. Losses where Redden's support was concentrated had no bearing on his win. He would have been re-elected comfortably even with zero votes. #wpgpoli
