And now for 2023, you can see the picks up by the NDP in St. Boniface over the Liberals, and the near complete erosion of PCs all throughout the suburbs to the benefit of the NDP. Few PC gains. Remember: These maps show change in support relative to the previous election. /End

When did the City of Winnipeg stop collecting yard waste at end of October and not into mid-November? Procrastinators being punished. Local media please do a story. I will pose with my arms crossed looking stern in front of my bags of unpicked up yard waste.

@jacquesmarcoux @Lifetouch You've done us all a great service

For the love of all that's holy, Globe and Mail, STOP DOING THIS. theglobeandmail.com/investing/inve…

@Fols54 @CoreyGallagher4 @Barnett120 Koya and Sheffield's still going strong though!!

Pretty sad walking through Grant Park and all the closed doors today... Long live Stride Ahead @CoreyGallagher4 @Barnett120 @jacquesmarcoux

Breaking: A former Winnipeg high school football coach has been sentenced to 20 years in prison. Kelsey McKay pleaded guilty to 9 counts of sexual assault and 2 of luring in connection with 9 former players, most between 15-18 years old, that he coached between 2003-2016.

Okay, that's it... now lets watch all the folks who will critique this by just stating that tipping is a choice... "don't like it, don't tip!" /end

All of the above serves to protect the consumer, but there is also the need for regulations that protect tip-based workers to ensure the employer is transparent and fair in the distribution of those funds. A number of provinces have such laws, but not Manitoba /7

Here is my pitch for a simple and would surely be a popular regulation concept under Manitoba's consumer protection and employment standard laws.... And all about getting a handle on the ridiculous tip/gratuity creep happening all around us. /1

In a nutshell, these are the areas in which the NDP made big inroads to take the riding (constituency for the purists) /end. #mbpoli @ianfroese @stevelambertwpg @curtisbrown_827 @EricGrenierTW

Compare this week's results to the map from the general election just a year earlier. Its a pretty stark difference. Note that Old Tuxedo barely changed their voting patterns. /2

Tuxedo byelection results at the poll level are in. Here is how Carla Compton and @WabKinew's @mbndp won Winnipeg's historic PC stronghold. Unlike in the '23 general election, last week the NDP mostly swept the neighbourhoods west of Assiniboine park/forest. /1 #mbpoli

@Palmquist88 @1spiritedmom @nikiashton cbc.ca/player/play/9.…

@1spiritedmom @nikiashton Not the same article I read. I read about an MP who brought her family on a work trip (allowed) and then went out to do some stuff as a family on their free time (allowed and very common in public and private sector) instead of just staying in the hotel room watching TV

I suspect @nikiashton attends most meetings by zoom because she had twins lol. Even doing that job with one young kid is insane, two!? And represents a remote northern rural riding. Making politics accessible to women means making it accessible to moms. cbc.ca/news/politics/…

Breath of fresh air to hear @pdmcleod on @CANADALAND drawing attention to the narrow-viewed commentators in Canada weighing in on tech policy, without understanding how it all fits into a much broader global set of issues. More of this insight in our country's discourse please.
