one of my favourite things about Winnipeggers is that they aren’t scared of a long drive. BC ? 4 days? See you soon. The lake? 2 hours outside the city? let’s go! But ask them to meet you in Transcona and they will look at you like you’ve asked them to cut off a limb

the comments on my housing post have reinforced two important points for me: 1) the right hates women, and 2) the Conservatives are deeply unserious about actually solving the housing crisis

🧵A LOT of new faces here so I’m going to reintroduce myself. My name is Ariel. I grew up on Vancouver Island with my mom. I love her lots. She raised me on her own and sacrificed a lot to ensure I had every opportunity to succeed in a system rigged against her and I both.

New data shows that very few cyclists and pedestrians are using Queen Elizabeth Driveway when it's closed to cars. Watch this video as a great example. When I recorded it yesterday afternoon, not a single pedestrian or cyclist passed me for the entire two and a half minutes.

A few months ago I moved to Winnipeg and last week I bought a house (and triggered the wrath of the right). For someone who grew up in such insecure conditions, it’s incredible to have know that no matter what happens in my life going forward, I have a place to call home.
