This isn't Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin or Tokyo. This is winter city Winnipeg in the Canadian prairies where people bike to football games.

My column today. Reports of the death of Osborne Village have been greatly exaggerated. Its unprecedented growth is an opportunity to restore Osborne to a neighbourhood main street from its current position as a commuter thoroughfare. winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/2…

How is this not a bigger story in America? Are folks seriously going to nag on one candidate for policy details or else they'll vote for... This? Good gawd.

In a weekend where referees have been called out in both MLS and CPL, Valour FC just got absolutely robbed of two huge points in their battle for the playoffs. Horrible call. What's the guy meant to do? The handball rule needs seriously reviewed again and the CPL needs VAR

Shocker, more white people in the neighbourhood complaining of safety. As a mom in the neighbourhood, my biggest fear is not the people- its the cars. cbc.ca/news/canada/ma…

Absolutely horrific to see the bus stop in front of a busy Y absolutely destroyed, and a life taken. I spent a lot of time in this stop when I worked at this Y, and so did a lot of kids. #wpgpoli #winnipeg

When the incredible need for workers in North American towns & cities collides with the lack of investment in housing, education & health care, mixed in with high profile ppl who are too dumb to recognize a conspiracy & amplify it, you get Springfield. 🐾 theguardian.com/us-news/2024/s…

What's this? The 7th collision on Portage this week? Cruise night 24/7 apparently. We've collectively lost our privilege to drive. Replace Portage avenue with a park already, this is ridiculous.

The housing trap: when housing is both an investment that must increase in price, *and* a shelter that cannot increase in price too much. There's still time to escape. Join us on a stop of The Housing Trap Tour. For more info: buff.ly/3ZkDAPe

I spent the weekend in the Ohio town where Trump said immigrants are eating cats. It took a turn quickly. slate.trib.al/9xjUiAY

A lot of people are intimidated by municipal finance, believing that they need a financial background to understand it. That’s not the case, though. In fact, the people in city hall who work and vote on municipal budgets generally don’t have that kind of background, either.
