Your job will require you to regularly loan the organization money through travel expenses and the purchasing of essential supplies. In return, our accounting office will create a discouragingly complex process for you to get your money back, and then treat you with suspicion.

My column tomorrow is out today: Great cities don’t hide from big ideas. Rail relocation is an opportunity to redefine Winnipeg’s future. The Forks’ transformation from rail yard to the city’s crown jewel represents a powerful example of the possibilities. https://t.co/LXunh8iCtl

The dumping of debris on a mural honouring #MMIWG2S at the Brady Road landfill is a grotesque act of hatred. It’s a reflection of how the lives of Indigenous women, girls and gender-diverse people are constantly devalued. We are a target. We deserve justice. #SearchTheLandfill

Happy to see @mathieuallard raising this. I believe that a cost benefit study will show that the anticipated economic benefits of these projects won’t be realized and that the better investment is in public/active transportation and community wellness services.
1/ This morning, I made the case to cancel the Chief Peguis Trail and Kenaston Capital Projects and replace them with strategic investments that would raise the value of our lands so that we can reduce the tax burden.

For 15+ years Build have been an integral force in removing employment barriers for underrepresented groups entering the workforce. At a time when our province faces a labour shortage, we strongly urge the government to rescind this decision. 2/2 #mbpoli

LACK OF FUNDING SHUTTERS BUILD TRAINING PROGRAM I'm so frustrated & disappointed about this announcement. We negotiated in good faith for over 2 years. My heart aches for those who won't have a chance to build the life they've dreamed about for themselves & their families. 😢.
