Hey y’all! Someone came to my doorstep with stuff in his hands which I cannot identify, except for shovel. Is anyone able to confirm if they’re working for the city and what they want?

Thanks in advance

I regularly pass by the legislative palace and see a kind of camp in front. I did some research but found nothing about it. Do you know why people camp there?

The EQ3 Bistro at Polo Park used to have such a good Niçoise Salad, then they changed their menu, then they turned into Stella's. Where can I get a good one for take-out that doesn't end up being 30 dollars??!

Are there any clinics or pharmacies carrying it here yet?

I’d love to try it, as I usually get a pretty strong reaction to the mRNA vaccines and I hear novavax has fewer side effects.

I saw a black-and-white medium size dog that looked somewhat like a poodle, running off-leash; it gave me the impression that it had escaped from a home. This happened around 3:50 p.m. at the corner of Wellington Crescent and Academy Road. I was driving and I couldn’t chase him

It could be anywhere in the city or perimeter. Stop light, 4 way stop, blind intersection, etc.

I've heard rumblings that Arc'teryx is finally coming to Winnipeg next year. It's going to great finally have a place close by to try the different jackets on

How is it since Ami came back? No need to bash the previous owners. Heard it all already. Looking for value etc .

Does anyone have a good company they use that offers monthly snow and yard cleaning for around $150 a month?

Please I beg you. This has happened to me once years before and it took me a year but finally found the right YouTube video to help me. I cant find it again or anything really on google and winter is coming and im at a loss.

I have a 2014 Civic EX, manual transmission. Ive had it since brand new, and the dealership installed command start for me. I understand the whole setting it process etc.. ive used it for years with no issues. It was working fine a month ago and all of a sudden it stopped again. This is what happens:

Im supposed to park the vehicle, e brake, in neutral, leave it running. I hold down the lock button on the compustar until there's a little click in my dash. At which point I exit the vehicle, it automatically locks and turns off. The remote start is now set (unless i have to re-enter the vehicle in which case I have to do the sequence all over again.)

The remote is flashing so it has battery. No changes have been made to the car since it worked last. But now, instead of setting, when I hold the key button down I get no click, and when I exit, the car remains running and doesnt set. IVE FIXED THIS BEFORE. Its not valet mode. I tried reprogramming by cycling the car through accessory mode/on 5 times like I read. I am at a loss. I cant remember what I did to fix this the last time. The remote isnt registering the vehicle at all. No parking light flashes etc.

Is there anyone that can help me? Anywhere in winnipeg or surrounding areas. I do not want to go through a winter without it, first world problems i know but im not going to detail why this final thing this year will drive me over the edge.

Has anyone else seen the commercial on TV recently for the $19.64 special on their XL Combo, Aloha, And Garden pizzas? I saw the ad this Sunday during the NFL games so I called to order one but no one at the restaurant knew anything about it. Can a business not honour a promotion they're advertising on TV?

Waiting for almost 25 mins supposed to have few buses as per google maps. All the Buses are not in service. All 6 buses that passed not in service? And then there are 3 buses F6 kissing each other's butt at the same time. I don't know if transit drivers are playing tag in the evening.

It is not a question you will hear raised at Public Utilities Board hearings into Autopac rates, but you can bet it’s the one on most people’s minds.

When will the NDP government step in and repair leadership at Manitoba Public Insurance? For the third year in a row, MPI has limped into PUB hearings like a badly damaged vehicle that should have been written off years ago.

This week, the Crown corporation’s chief actuary admitted the 2.38-per-cent increase requested for the 2027-28 fiscal year was too low, in part because of the impact of last summer’s multiple hailstorms and the premiums MPI pays for re-insurance that protects the public insurer from surges in claims costs.

Chief actuary Cara Low said the rate application was not updated because of “uncertainty.” That is sort of like a firefighter complaining about not being able to do the job because there was too much smoke and flame.

MPI is in the business of managing uncertainty and forecasting the future.

The last major hail event occurred in the last week of July; MPI, working with its brokers and re-insurers, should have been able to come up with a figure before the fall hearings on how much more it was going to cost to buy third-party coverage for weather events.

This was a troubling admission on its own. But it’s significantly more troubling because the previous two years have seen similar acts of sloppiness.

Two years ago, MPI had the audacity to ask the PUB for a two-per-cent basic Autopac rate hike even though its own actuarial data (the complex mathematical and statistical calculations to measure risk and forecast increases in premiums) showed the need for a bigger increase.

Last year, under the oversight of a provincial government committed to “affordability,” MPI tried valiantly to keep increases to basic Autopac rates down to just two per cent, but did that by increasing the deductible for basic coverage and premiums for extension coverage.

As of April of this year, MPI authorized a $250 increase in the basic Autopac deductible. This latest upcharge means the basic deductible has doubled from $500 to $1,000 in just five years.

That would be bad enough, but in one of the most cynical moves MPI has ever taken, it also started charging more for extension coverage to buy a lower deductible.

Interveners at the PUB howled in protest about these changes, largely because the PUB is not legally permitted to control things such as deductibles and extension coverage.

Which brings us to this year and the painful admission that on the opening days of the PUB hearings, MPI’s rate application was woefully out of date. Or, as Low was forced to admit, the application was “wrong.”

“We know it’s wrong. (But) We don’t know how wrong it is for any estimate because we’re forecasting into the future, and no one knows what’s going to happen in the future,” she said.

This is a telling and worrisome admission. Although nobody can predict the future with 100 per cent accuracy, the business of insurance is about generating a picture of the future that is close to accurate.

However, a tentative approach to predicting the future is not the only thing that should worry drivers and the NDP government.

MPI appears to think its only option for managing increased costs is to take more from policy holders, either through PUB-reviewed basic policy premiums or opportunistic increases in deductibles and added coverage the PUB cannot control.

But there are other ways to control costs, such as finding the intestinal fortitude to take a long, hard look at overhead.

It would be wrong to suggest that current CEO Satvir Jatana has turned MPI into the bloated and inefficient entity it is today. Just as she cannot be totally faulted for the nine-figure losses associated with the failed Project Nova information-technology upgrade.

Those accomplishments fall squarely on the shoulders of her predecessor, Eric Herbelin, who was summarily fired in the spring of 2023 after running Nova off the tracks and going on an intensive hiring spree, adding hundreds of positions without any clear idea of what they were expected to do.

Since Herbelin’s departure, however, there has been little progress in reducing head count or finding other cost savings through the claims process, which has been hammered by repair-cost inflation.

At some point, Jatana has to show that she has the vision and commitment to bring MPI operations back to a sustainable level. That commitment seems to be lacking.

Instead, the corporation seems happy to lowball its rate applications in some sort of desperate ploy to let the PUB take the blame when rates increase more than MPI requested.

If that’s the case, it’s a pretty naive strategy. When Autopac customers open their annual rate notices, and see that it’s more expensive to insure their vehicles, they will focus the scorn on MPI, not the regulator that may have forced the corporation to do the right thing.

One year of incompetence could be an aberration. Two years could be bad luck.

But three years of sloppy, inaccurate and poorly argued rate applications is a problem that requires immediate government attention.

Have a big beard, need a trim, don’t know where to go. Anyone who is in the community knows this isn’t as easy as you think because even people that cut a lot of hair are hit and miss when it comes to beards. I’m north west so double points if your suggestion is somewhere around polo park ish.

My besties 6th year sobriety anniversary is coming up. I wanted to plan something for her, she’s said in the past how she’d love for someone to do a surprise something for her so I thought perfect opportunity… I’m asking for suggestions! There would be about 10 of us… I have about $200 to spend but if going for dinner or something like that everyone would cover their own cost of dinner I’d just put the $200 towards a different part of the celebration for her

Thank you kindly for any suggestions

Edited to add… we are mostly around 35 yrs old there are two women who are older than 50. And we are all female. Nothing spa related

As the title says, I was in a car accident this morning. I was in the Tim Hortons drive thru when I did not pay attention and accidentally tapped the car in front of me.

After review, there was 0 damage to both my car and the other car, who then accused me of being on drugs.

The other car then drove off after I had offered to review and exchange contact info in the parking lot. They had been videotaping the incident after it happened and proceeeded to enter their car and drive away without discussing the accident.

Wondering what could happen to me in this situation?

They initially claimed they needed to temporarily close their doors after an ominous Instagram post citing an "Unexpected operational disruption" back in August. They don't seem to have any plans to return, so what happened?

For all the sports hat and gear fans out there. Which Lids Winnipeg location has the most variety for each of NHL, NFL and MLB?

Hi,

Is there any printing shop in winnipeg open 24/7 for printouts? Please let me know. It’s urgent!

I have some rather technical questions about Manitobas particular electrical grid. Mostly curious how the high voltage DC link affects grid inertia and how the grid inertia is handled in Manitoba.

Does anybody know where or who or even how I could find out more about this fairly unique power grid that we have in our province?

I have found a few papers on grid frequency stability in Manitoba but nothing addressing the impact of HVDC transmission.

Winnipeg police have issued at least 4 community notifications about him since 2022

A man previously convicted numerous times of sex offences against women and girls — some of them targeted at random — allegedly broke into three different Osborne Village homes last month and took off when confronted by homeowners.

Officers arrested Curtis Leroy George, 34, on Princess Street on Tuesday after an investigation by the Winnipeg Police Service's property crime unit, a Wednesday news release said.

He was charged with three counts of breaking-and-entering with intent and four counts of violating probation. George was detained in custody.

Winnipeg police refused to confirm to CBC News that the man charged is the same Curtis Leroy George they previously characterized as a convicted sex offender considered a high risk to reoffend in at least four community notifications since 2022, including last winter.

In the recent offences, George is alleged to have broken into three separate residences on Stradbrook Avenue, between Harkness Avenue and Scott Street, between Sept. 13 and 14.

The intruder forced his way in through a window each time, police allege, and in two of the incidents he took off after being confronted by homeowners inside. The release did not say what happened in the third break-in.

None of the homeowners reported injuries to investigators, police said.

Despite the case initially being investigated by the Winnipeg police property crimes unit, none of the homeowners reported any property being stolen, the release states.

George has a lengthy criminal record that goes back to at least 2010 and includes convictions for sexual interference and criminal harassment.

He has previously been convicted six times for sexual assault, seven times for assault and once for committing an indecent act, police said previously.

In a case from 2011, George sexually assaulted five random women while they were jogging or walking. He was also convicted of sexual interference involving a 13-year-old girl. He was sentenced to two years.

In 2016, George stalked, harassed and exposed himself to a woman near where she worked. He was sentenced to two years in 2018.

He exposed himself to a woman at a bus stop with her young daughter in 2022 and was sentenced to just under one year.

The most recent community notification about George was issued by the Manitoba Integrated High Risk Sex Offender Unit — a joint Winnipeg police and RCMP unit — in mid-February.

That notice suggests he was released from Milner Ridge Correctional Centre after serving a 1½-year sentence for sexually assaulting an adolescent girl in Thompson, and was expected to live in Winnipeg.

That assault contravened pre-existing probation orders to stay away from anyone under 16 without written approval from probation services.

When he was released in February, George was described as a "violent" and "untreated sex offender" at a high-risk to reoffend against women and girls.

He was also ordered to be under supervised probation for 18 months, which required him to avoid contact with anyone 16 or younger unless supervised.

George also has two lifetime weapon prohibitions.

Police said in February that anyone with information about George could contact the Manitoba Integrated High Risk Sex Offender Unit at 431-489-8056.

Where do you find Retsina these days. MLC stopped carrying it a few years ago and the only private wine store that used to sell it says they can't get it any longer. Closest I can find is Vermilion Bay Ontario or buying a case of 24 through MLC.

Does anyone know what's going on with Isekai? I loved Dwarf no Cachette and was so sad when they closed. I was thrilled when they reopened as Isekai, but now they just seem to be closed indefinitely?
