It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

Proud this morning to see two of my stories from last year recognized with National Newspaper Award nominations. The first, about the second-generation cut-off, which has been referred to as a genocide “in paper form” for First Nations people. www.winnipegfreepress.com/featured/202...

It is perhaps the closest thing Canada could have to a team in the NCAA Division 1 men’s basketball tournament and — of course — Winnipeg has a hand in it.

The family of a woman who died following an 11-hour wait in a Winnipeg emergency room last month has added its voice to demands for a public inquiry.

Yves Jarvis All Cylinders has been nominated for the #Polaris2025 #AlbumShortList, and will perform live at the Concert on Sept 16! 15%-Off Tix at link in Bio. CBC presents the 2025 Polaris Music Prize. This year's Short List is presented by FACTOR.

I didn’t know Brendan Berg well, but he was always beyond kind whenever we crossed paths. According to friends, meaningful connection was a common thread for the Royal Canoe bassist and his partner, Olivia Michalczuk.

Family, friends and fans are mourning the unexpected loss of two influential figures in Winnipeg’s music community.

Olivia could only tell it like it was, and anybody who met them could immediately see their immense intelligence, care and quick wit. Brendan was impossibly kind. Whenever he chatted with anyone, they were the centre of his attention. I feel very lucky to have known them. An immense loss for so many

Polaris is incredibly sadden to hear of the tragic passing of juror Olivia Michalczuk and their partner Brendan Berg of the band Royal Canoe. Polaris extends our deepest sympathies to both Olivia and Brendan's family, friends and the music lovers they touched with their enthusiasm and care.
