I'm gonna get a locking mailbox at this point.

So you'll increase transit funding?
Winnipeg has officially crossed the 850,000 resident mark, and we saw the 5th highest total population increase in Canada last year.
Big numbers mean big responsibility. This confirms why we need to double down on housing and strategic infrastructure like the new North End Sewage Treatment Plant.

My son Seamus died 15 years ago today. He was killed by a careless driver in a crosswalk.
He walked at 9 months, almost as if he knew he wouldn’t have much time. His favorite thing to do was throw rocks into water. He loved the moon. He called butterflies “buddy buddies.” I miss him every day.

A massive project is moving forward to expand Kenaston Boulevard and replace key infrastructure around it, despite some concerns it won’t have a lasting impact on the area’s traffic-snarling congestion.

Drivers are out of control
Police in Airdrie, Alberta (just north of Calgary) say this driver hit a 17-year-old girl in a marked crosswalk, got out of the vehicle, and appeared to get upset at the teenager before driving away.
They released this video and are now trying to identify the driver.

I have a lot of fond memories in this building.
Opening in 1929 as Roxy Theatre the building could seat 1000 movie goers.
After closing in the 50s the building found a new life as Roxy Lanes, opening in 1960. With 20 lanes to enjoy, it was a bustling spot for Elmwood residents.
