I fear even this analysis is too optimistic. Economic turmoil is eroding our resolve to make the needed changes. Governments are backsliding as the public withdraws social license to act. #climatecrisis www.cnn.com/2025/11/04/c...

As a stakeholder of MBLL (both part owner as customer) I am proud of the principled stand we have taken here. Self-respect over ephemeral profit. Liquor and Lotteries throws out $29K of spoiled U.S. booze www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews...

"There is no place for complacency. America is showing us that democracy dies an inch at a time, especially if you shrug away the unforgivable." American political news is everybody’s news www.winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/anal...

Awful news. We were at the Louvre less than a month ago. Hopefully the thieves will be caught before these cultural assets are cut up and sold. #LouvreHeist www.cbc.ca/news/world/p...

To be frank, I'm disappointed there is still as much Canada to US travel as there still is. If Americans want Canadian customers - then fix your mess. Push back on this economic warfare YOUR government is waging on us. Make it politically untenable. www.cnn.com/2025/10/13/b...

"Since 2023, the world’s reefs have been enduring the worst mass bleaching event on record as oceans reach record high temperatures, with more than 80% affected." We are just going to blow past 1.5 degrees and run face first into ecosystem collapse. #ClimateEmergency www.ctvnews.ca/climate-and-...

Good work, everyone! Keep it up. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The editorial team at the @winnipegfreepress.com calls out Smith and Moe on their hypocrisy and ridiculous arguments. "It is all too familiar, and frankly tiresome." Indeed! Albertan when we want, Canadian when it suits us www.winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/edit...

An excellent opportunity for Manitobans to save on their home energy bills, reduce energy use and GHG emissions! Province launches ‘most generous’ incentives for home heating, cooling upgrades www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews...

Not only is it Father's Day, but it's also Selkirk Day! I'm deeply proud of my Selkirk roots. My dad instilled a love of this place in me, so the alignment of these two observances couldn't be more meaningful. My pride of home will forever be entangled with the memory of my dad.

The City of Selkirk has formally requested to withdraw from the Capital Planning Region (CPR) and Plan 20-50 — keeping decisions about Selkirk’s development where they belong: with our locally-elected Council and accountable to our citizens. Read the full story: www.myselkirk.ca/blog/2025/06...

The City of Selkirk wants to leave the Capital Planning Region.

June 15 marks the anniversary of Selkirk’s incorporation in 1882 & this year we’re celebrating Selkirk Day for the first time! 🎉 We’ve packed June with fun, family-friendly activities to honour this lovely community we call home. 💙 See the full slate of activities: www.myselkirk.ca/blog/2025/06...

Great interview with @duanenicol.bsky.social on CBC Radio Noon. Selkirk is flourishing and leading the way with many progressive local initiatives. Great to hear that the MB NDP government will (hopefully) grant them the autonomy they deserve.

We absolutely need an inquiry into this scandal. Was this a case of crony capitalism, where PC insiders tried to foist a dubious project on Manitobans, a project with the potential for widespread environmental damage. Cui bono? We must find out. #MbPoli www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/2025/0...

14 ballistic missiles and dozens of drones were aimed at Kyiv last night. This is Putin's follow up to his two hour chat with Trump www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Today is the day! My husband's book (edited by yours truly!) officially debuts in Canada today.... which means it's also shameless self-promotion day ;)

Winnipeg dumps billions (and billions and billions) of litres of raw sewage into its rivers. The city says it will take until 2095 to stop. @jsrutgers.bsky.social dives deep into the city's sewage woes — and what it means for residents thenarwhal.ca/winnipeg-sew...

After a judicial recount the riding of Terrbonne has flipped back to the Liberals from the Bloc. The margin of victory is a single vote. One. Vote. LPC now at 170 seats with three more ridings being recounted this week. (LPC holds two of them so they could drop from 170 or go as high as 171)

Methodically, consistently, and cost-effectively the City of Selkirk has been reducing our GHG emissions. Our GHG by-laws mandate net-zero operations by 2030. This is the 3rd building we've converted away from fossil gas. #earthweek #earthday #climateaction www.myselkirk.ca/blog/2025/04...

I just signed up for a couple of #winnipeg #janeswalks. There are lots of great walks this year! winnipegarts.ca/janes-walk/l...

"Cdns deserve a serious conversation about bail reform... one that respects the Constitution, listens to legal experts & actually improves outcomes for victims and communities. Poilievre’s plan does none of that. It’s pure political theatre." #cdnpoli www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/2025/0...

"President Trump is trying to break us so that America can own us, and that will never happen. Canada is not America, and it never will be, but we need to do more to just recognize that. We need a plan to deal with this new reality" #cdnpoli www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Dear Ms. Boebert, FAFO sincerely, Canada ps. if you are so interested we will send you a map of where you can find us. meidasnews.com/news/boebert...

Ezra Levant is Poilievre's Steve Bannon. Elect the CPC and you get Rebel News pulling the strings, just like Trump and Fox News. Look how well that has turned out. #MapleMAGA #Poilievre51 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

It's all a sham. An alt-right network of bilious and hateful actors, bent on changing Canada into a US vassal. #cdnpoli #elxn45 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

I'm very proud of the work we have done to reduce our corporate GHG emissions, and to make Selkirk more resilient in the face of a changing climate. As a result we get asked to participate and share our work with municipalities across the country. It's an absolute honour. #climateaction #mbpoli

Oh Canada! #mbpoli

Surprised but not surprised — Selkirk’s downtown was named one of the Top 8 on the Prairies by WorldAtlas! 🎉 With rich history, a vibrant waterfront, and iconic spots like the Marine Museum, it’s easy to see why. Read the full story to learn more: www.myselkirk.ca/blog/2025/04...

A shuttered small-town theatre bought back by the community to become a hub for local culture, high school performances and Hollywood favourites: the story has the inspirational feel of movies such as It’s a Wonderful Life and The Majestic, but it’s currently unfolding in Selkirk.

The Garry Theatre project is an investment into ourselves as a community. One with high social, economic, and cultural returns. The Garry will be the new epicenter of our thriving downtown. Showtime in Selkirk www.winnipegfreepress.com/arts-and-lif... via @winnipegfreepress.com #mbpoli #cities

Happy #TartanDay🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿! A day to celebrate Scottish culture and heritage. Had a great time representing the MacNicol clan at St Andrews Society of Winnipeg's Ceilidh last night.

They haven't lost anything. It's only a loss when you sell. They are buying... buying the world at a deep discount. Rich getting richer.

Simon Payette is a misogynist and a coward. "In one post, he writes that he will look her “straight in the eye” as he tears up Bill C-21, the gun control law" Tories drop Quebec candidate who said massacre survivor was playing ‘victim game’ #cdnpoli www.winnipegfreepress.com/canada/2025/...

The "land of the free". 🙄 America is quickly becoming a totalitarian state, adopting the policing practices of their contemporaries.

Said the quiet part loud. Trump doesn't care if people pay higher prices. Doesn't care about America, just cares about himself.

Good. Who wants to own a Musk #Swasticar?

Good public transit delivers benefits that cross the lines of government responsibilities, yet most of the cost is left to municipalities to shoulder. Long-term & predictable Investments like this from other levels allow municipalities the room to improve services. #Transit #cdnpoli #mbpoli

May I suggest that the Democratic Party look to Matt Drudge for messaging advice.
