Happy St. Andrew's Day!

Today, in recognition of the patron saint of Scotland, we celebrate the best of Scottish culture.

I'm proud of my Scottish heritage and have been doing more to learn about it.

Today is Holodomor Memorial Day. Seven million Ukrainians were starved to death by Stalin's Soviet Union. It was genocide.

Today Putin's Russia seeks to erase Ukraine. This is also genocide.

We must learn from history.

I love my city, the work I get to do, the people I get to do it with, & the profession that I'm in.

I'm honoured to accept the Lieutenant Governor's Award for Leadership in Municipal Administration.

Thank you to the Manitoba Municipal Administrators & the Lt Governor of MB for this recognition.

Awful news. We were at the Louvre less than a month ago. Hopefully the thieves will be caught before these cultural assets are cut up and sold.

Not only is it Father's Day, but it's also Selkirk Day!

I'm deeply proud of my Selkirk roots. My dad instilled a love of this place in me, so the alignment of these two observances couldn't be more meaningful.

My pride of home will forever be entangled with the memory of my dad.

Happy #TartanDay🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿! A day to celebrate Scottish culture and heritage.

Had a great time representing the MacNicol clan at St Andrews Society of Winnipeg's Ceilidh last night.

Not windy today (a blessing at -25). Installed a flagpole last year to fly the Maple Leaf proudly.

Proud to support the @n-t-s.bsky.social with my purchase.

Today is Holodomor Memorial Day. A day where we honour the victims of the 1932–33 famine in Ukraine, which claimed millions of lives.

An act of genocide by Stalin and his Russian led soviet empire.

The wind wasn't cooperating....it's a poppy flag with "Lest we forget" on it (from the Royal Canadian Legion).

We will remember them.

Methodically & consistently we are making progress in Selkirk.

Our GHG Accountability By-law is unique in Manitoba, requiring:
- the tracking and reporting of GHGs
- setting Paris aligned targets
- establishing a financial plan to deliver
