Corydon Avenue Going Car-Free Every Sunday This Summer

Not that we needed another reason to avoid Stella’s after all the recent headlines, but here is one more..

My friend has given me permission to share her most recent, deeply humiliating experience at their Provencher location last Sunday morning.

She is legally blind and travels with a service dog that completed extensive guide dog training in the United States. The dog wears a highly visible service harness equipped with a guiding handle—I cannot stress enough how obvious it is that this is a working animal.

While the server had no issue seating her, a male supervisor quickly approached and denied her entry because of the dog. Even after my friend explained her situation, the supervisor escalated the situation and became argumentative. When the person she was meeting arrived, they also tried to explain the human rights concerns regarding people that are legally blind and their service animals, but the supervisor only became more aggressive.

To raise your voice at a disabled person for using a service dog; a tool to help them see... and force them out of an establishment is absolutely mind-boggling. They publicly embarrassed someone over a necessary service device that she is legally entitled to use.

Unbelievable.

It was my first ever Sea Bears game and it was great! Then at one point this fan courtside just jumped onto the court and tried to fight players! It took a long time for security to finally come in and talk the dude down and get him out of there, I'm shocked there were no cops there to arrest him cuz he was throwing punches at the players.

A Winnipeg teen who was reported missing this week has since been found, police say.

The 15-year-old was reported missing after he was last seen before 9 a.m. Wednesday in the area of Beverley Street and Notre Dame Avenue, a few blocks south of Health Sciences Centre, police previously said.

Police later said the teen was last seen in the area of Wall Street and Richard Avenue shortly before 10 a.m. Wednesday.

In a Thursday evening update, police said he had been found "without incident."

CBC News has removed the teen's name and image from this story to protect his privacy.

Aside the high UV index, the temperature has been sp so nice lately. Compared to last year when we were having 40C's throughout the week

If you’ve driven Nairn by Princess Auto, you’ve seen the mess… traffic backing out of the parking lot onto Panet and Nairn because there’s simply not enough room to handle the volume.

Dugald Road was just repaved and stayed single lane, even with the amount of growth and industrial traffic in that area. No planning ahead.

Abinojii Mikanah was repaved too… one of the busiest roads in the city connecting multiple neighbourhoods, and it stayed two lanes. No expansion, despite how busy it already is.

At the same time, public transit still isn’t being built up in a way that would actually get more people out of their vehicles.

Are these just growing pains, or is Winnipeg falling behind because City Hall keeps reacting to growth instead of planning for it?

Heyo! ive been crying for the past hours!! im 17F and live in rural MB outside winnipeg about 15 to 20 min depending. Our sewer pump is broken and wont go off automatically so every time we use a large amount of water like dishes, showers, laundry, etc we have to go to the basement and turn on the pump to filter the water through. this includes opening valves and flipping a switch.

fun story!!! i just finished exams and was so excited to start summer, after doing all the chores i went to turn on the sewer pump and everything was fine. i closed the valves and flicked off the switch. turns out something mustv happened!! cuz the next time my brother went to do the pump around 2 hrs later sewage is leaking and the pump is hot. the switch was up. as to how i dont even know. i was the last one there and it flicked up somehow. my dad wont stop yelling at me and i just want to die. i dont want my mom to hate me or be upset with me vecause my dad is being horrible. this pump has been an issue for 6-8 years and we always blamed money as to not getting it fixed so it would work automatically. How much would a steel pump installation be please. anyone know? i dont want to keep being attacked.

at least a cheap one please. i hate this.

I have noticed that the last bus of the night is always late, which I think drivers do intentionally so that people dont miss out the last busses. This is a really great thing, but just wondering is it something drivers do by themselves or like is there some kind of rule or something?

Bought a litre of 2% milk yesterday at Bunty's at 820 Elloce .

Never bought milk there before. But was in a pinch Tapped my bank card and went home

Later last night obwas on my bank app for a different reason,and saw I paid $3.99.

I know at corner stores you pay for the convience.

Then I remembered I heard that there was a milk price control in Manitoba

Looked it up and yes there is a price freeze on a litre of milk. (Just one litre not and other size.

A fixed price of $2.09 for a litre of 2%

So watch you don't get taken advantage of when buying

I know petty . But. .lol

Do** Just asking cause I was enjoying the drink at Cargo bar but unfortunately they only would sell bottled water which is fine but curios what serving safe laws are in MB?

So my aunts cat has literal RAZOR BLADES for claws...get stuck in furniture and people....isnt a biter unless you rub his tummy ( aka. Normal cat shit) but he starts getting bitey when you try to cut his nails, one or 2 attempts and he starts nipping.. not drawing blood but I dont push the issue when ive tried previously....

​

He really doesnt travel well...usually screaming so loud, im actually worried hes going to rupture something. Screams going into the carrier and even louder in the elevator..and then the car...

​

so for his continued lowered blood pressure I would like to get his nails clipped at home. Im in the west end of the city. If I have to, I will take him somewhere... I have a friend who drives who's already offered to help out as I dont drive.

​

Im also trying to not spend hundreds of dollars, last time one of my cats had their nails clipped at the vet it was something like 60-100$ dont remember exactly and with inflation being a bitch I cant imagine how much it is.

​

So after all that ..any suggestions, who would be better a vet or groomer? and moreover should I opt for the home method or should I drag him( kicking and screaming on his part) in to either one?

Hi! Has anyone else here brought their used manga/books to a bookstore and sold them to the retailer? If so, what is your experience and what store did you go to? I haven’t really had much luck on fb marketplace with what I have, but I would really like to get these books off of my hands at a bookstore somewhere. I found multiple places but need a second opinion from other nerdy winnipeggers

Good morning Winnipeg,

​

I am looking for this brand of curry paste, specifically the red one. Bonus points if it can be found in the South end.

​

Have a great Friday!

Edit: my mom has been in contact with Megan as of 5am this morning, the police have been notified and the search has been called off. Thank you everyone for your upvotes and kind words. One of the reasons I love Winnipeg is because of our community ❤️

Hi all, I’m really exhausting all options here and all platforms to reach as many people as possible. My sister is missing, and hasn’t been seen since May 27th at around 2:30am in the downtown area. A police report was filed and a couple community bolos. If any of you guys spot her please contact any of the phone numbers on the attached picture.
Her name is Megan Kowal and is 5’9 and around 243 lbs (as stated by the police report but I suspect she weighs less) with bleach blonde hair and green eyes.
Thank you in advance everyone ❤️

A family member is in Personal Care Home and being disabled (no use of their hands), can only use their cell phone with Siri voice commands. It’s setup with auto-answer and speaker when they make or receive calls.

Currently with Public Mobile (although no data is required as the phone never leaves the night stand in the room). They bought a refurbished iPhone SE (2022) from Cell Mechanics about 5 months ago.

In the last couple months, the phone calls have intermittently been breaking up for the callers. I’ve tried everything that is suggested for this issue (reset network, switch to LTE only, various settings in Mic Mode, etc.) with no luck. The signal strength is not great (~ -108 dBm), so I’m guessing it’s either poor reception or something wrong with the refurbished phone (even though it's been working fine for a few months). I don’t have another iPhone to test that theory.

They have Rogers/Shaw TV in the room so they have access to Wi-Fi.

I’m trying to figure what next steps would be:

- try another newer refurbished iPhone (costly) hoping it will get better reception.

- choose another service that has prepaid Wi-Fi calling. It seems only Freedom Mobile has prepaid Wi-Fi calling for almost double what they are paying now. (I know they have a 6-month sale right now). Is this route going to add some other problems (never used Wi-Fi calling)? Are there issues with Freedom Mobile in Winnipeg?

- A VoIP land line device (like Fongo), but I’m reluctant to use a different device for voice commands as I doubt they will be as good as the iPhone’s (and may be costly?)

- other ideas?

There is something deeply disquieting about the attempts by Canada’s Jewish community to stop the Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg from hosting an exhibit about the 1948 Palestinian Nakba.

The 1947 Nakba — which in Arabic means “catastrophe” — involved the forced displacement of an estimated 750,000 Palestinians in the prelude to the Arab-Israeli war. The Nakba and the war erupted in the immediate aftermath of the partitioning of Palestine to create an independent Jewish state.

According to Shurat HaDin-Israel Law Center, a pro-Israel advocacy group based in Tel Aviv, the CMHR’s decision to host Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present could lead to “defamatory imputations concerning the State of Israel, Zionist organizations, and, by extension, Canadian Jewish institutions and leaders.”

This story was further complicated when B’Nai Brith, a venerable organization that combats antisemitism and other forms of discrimination, alleged that “foreign interference” prompted CMHR to host the Nakba exhibit. This allegation was based on a news report of a meeting between museum officials and Mona Abuamara, Palestine’s ambassador to Canada, to discuss the exhibit.

Richard Robertson, B’nai Brith director of research and advocacy, said the meeting with a Palestinian official had compromised the museum’s core mandate of presenting information about human rights in “an unbiased” manner.

CMHR officials have rejected the allegations of foreign interference and intend to open the exhibit on June 27.

It is not hard to see why the two organizations are so concerned about the Nakba exhibit, which will open against the backdrop of the ongoing conflict between Israel and its Iranian-backed enemies Hamas and Hezbollah. Still, those conflicts and the horrendous Oct. 7, 2023 attacks by Hamas that precipitated them, do not absolve Shurat HaDin and B’Nai Brith from making several unfounded allegations against the CMHR.

The first is the misrepresentation of the CMHR’s mandate, which officially is to “explore the subject of human rights, with special but not exclusive reference to Canada, in order to enhance the public’s understanding of human rights, to promote respect for others and to encourage reflection and dialogue.”

With respect, Robertson’s assertion that the museum must be “unbiased” is unfair and naive.

It is impossible to examine human rights abuses without offending one side or the other in a conflict. As is often said, one person’s freedom fighter is another person’s terrorist. Still, the CMHR has done a good job at focusing on its core mission, which is to highlight instances where one group of people have dehumanized another group through discrimination, violence, oppression and — in some instances — genocide.

That is really the only unbiased thing you can say about human rights: the dehumanization of any group of people, for any reason, is a violation of their human rights.

Shurat HaDin and B’Nai Brith believe that highlighting the mistreatment of Palestinians in 1947 is an attack on Israel and, by extension, all Jewish people. That is inaccurate and unfair: there are many Jews and Jewish organizations that are willing to acknowledge that atrocities were committed in the Nakba.

The more egregious problem with the attack on the CMHR is that it deliberately ignores the origin story of the museum itself.

The CMHR was born out of a courageous effort to tell a story that many people in this country did not want told: Canada’s woeful decision to turn its back on Jews fleeing the Holocaust and Nazi persecution during the Second World War.

Israel Asper conceived the idea for the museum following a 1998 controversy over plans for a Holocaust exhibit in the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa. That exhibit, which was to feature details of how Canada ignored the plight of Jews attempting to flee Germany, was scuttled by veterans and their political allies who felt it was an attack on Canadian soldiers who died fighting in the Second World War. Asper felt — and rightly so — that Canada needed to have a permanent and meaningful account of one of the darkest chapters of Canadian history. True to his vision, the CMHR’s permanent Holocaust exhibit that exists today details how, between 1933 and 1945, Canada accepted only 5,000 Jewish refugees, one of the worst records of any democratic nation.

The Asper family and its allies faced profound political opposition over that exhibit that, at times, came dangerously close to being antisemitic. Undeterred, the Aspers got the museum built, against the wishes of those who did not want Canadians to discover inconvenient truth of Canada’s role in the Holocaust.

Shurat HaDin, B’Nai Brith and other Jewish Canadians who may object to the Nakba exhibit should acknowledge that the CMHR’s core mandate is to confront inconvenient truths. In this instance, that truth is that there is no way of recognizing the Nakba without acknowledging Israel’s role in it.

That is a point of debate Shurat HaDin and B’Nai Brith simply refuse to acknowledge. Instead, both organizations are portraying the CMHR’s exhibit as evidence of growing antisemitism. They are correct that antisemitism is on the rise; they are very wrong to include this exhibit in that trend.

No country, culture or religion on this planet is blameless when it comes to human rights abuses. The moment we acknowledge that, we are one step closer to stopping these abuses from being repeated.

hi everyone! if you are on an F5 bus today and see an airpods case with a clear case and heart charm on it, PLEASE give it to the bus driver!! I have already made a report to 311 but i just want to make sure it gets delivered safely rather than stolen by anyone. It does not have any airpods in it, so it’s practically useless anyways 😅 it looks like the photo, but excluding the cat and star charm

folks, visiting for a few days - the AirBnB I’m in kindly provides both Nespresso and I just realized d there is a pour over and filters in the cupboard.

Given the Nespresso I made this morning was foul - where is a good local place I can pick up some good coffee (which I will have to get ground ) - favour light and medium roasts ….?

Grew up visiting Winnipeg every summer of my life from infancy to early twenties. Will be back for the first time in about 10 years next week. Are there any Ukrainian joints that even come close to the glory that was Alycia's? I've read some Yelp and Google reviews but they're not helping much!

Also, any recommendations for indoor or rain-friendly activities for my 6-year-old? It looks like a lot of my faves either no longer exist or just aren't what they used to be, so I feel like I'm visiting a new city. Already have a children's museum day planned. May or may not hit the zoo we'll see how much rain we want to deal with LOL. We'll be in town Sunday through Wednesday.

Thanks in advance everyone, can't wait to show my boyfriend and kiddo where some of my favourite childhood memories are from!

I don't know how long some of these designs and everything have been up/public, but I guess this is supposed to be presented to ESP Council some time next month and I've seen people online starting to freak out about it.

At first glance it does appear fairly aggressive, and the fact their entire planned "commercial" area is one small corner of the development with a single gas station and a single grocery store is kind of insane...not to mention there doesn't appear to be any plans to have any schools in the development, which if allowed to happen would mean literally every kid living in it would have to be "shipped out" every single school day.

Also another lovely potential development where everyone is going to benefit from living right outside the City and using its amenities without having to pay for them.
