"MPI flip-flops on decision to license some drivers without a road test"
Gee, I wonder why?
Part 1 of a series of articles in the @winnipegfreepress that examine two decades of inequests into police shootings.
I was shocked by the extremely lengthy delays and lack of importance placed on such inquests. This is the kind of in-depth journalism that is so important to society.

My wife is currently winding her way through the medical system in Manitoba. From lost faxes (yes, FAXES), to the inability to see specialists, I believe that our system is in free fall. The only thing holding it together are individual medical providers who are doing their best with the duct tape and baling wire.
I hope the next government makes meaningful change. Not just photo ops and baloney stats. Real change. Even if we have to make serious investments.
I truly believe that Manitoba needs to throw the PCs out of power in October. And this probably means that the NDP has to win the election. Which means I will probably vote for them. But OMG, reducing gas taxes to pander to the electorate? Counterproductive and nonsensical.
The disingenuous PC ads make me less likely to vote for them every time I hear one. Not that I am going to vote for them anyway. #mbpoli
I didn't know Rick Shone was running in our upcoming provincial election, so I was really excited when I rode past his campaign office today!
Then...I realized that he was running for the PCs. Ugghhhh!! Why Rick, why??
One of many reasons I have come to view religion as toxic. 98% of the time, the people whining about these books are complaining because of their “religious beliefs”.
Yes, sexuality is complex and messy. Guess what - teens deserve to have access to frank material that addresses things directly - because the people making the fuss probably aren’t addressing it with their teens.

This op-ed from Dr. Dan Robert, acting head of neurology at HSC is incredible. He refers to the sleep study deal with Cerebra as a "fiasco" and his final comment is "It’s clear the privatization agenda is paramount, regardless of the cost or the long-term health consequences."
I sure hope that Manitobans are paying attention. Thanks to Dr. Roberts for speaking up, and thanks to @winnipegfreepress for publishing.
This "brethren" cult sounds a lot like scientology.
Poor little clams, snap snap snap!

@miki_lou The Manitoba NDP unanimously passed a resolution on anti-scab legislation at the last party convention. Wab Kinew basically says "he'll think about it".
The base wants it, the head honchos don't, and that's been the history of the Manitoba NDP going back half a century.

As someone who worked for Marnie, I can say that she is a great choice. Highly intelligent, bridge builder, learns from the people under her.
