12 unit condo "too much" for Crescentwood, Winnipeg?

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/crescentwood-condos-epc-1.3885375 I'm generally not a fan of developer lobbying (especially if it's in favour of lower fees or outer suburban development) but this EPC/City Centre Committee decision seems bad. Denser development in central neighbourhoods seems exactly what Winnipeg needs.

Manitoba NDP leadership

Aristotleded24 — Tue, 19 Apr 2016 16:22:54 +0000

The polls are open, and let's not kid ourselves, that there will be a change in leadership for the Manitoba NDP shortly after the ballots are counted. Who should that be?

Make Pallister A One-Term Premier

Aristotleded24 — Sat, 16 Apr 2016 18:27:50 +0000

Unless the polls are wildly wrong, Pallister will certainly be elected Premier on Tuesday, the only question is how big his margin will be. We will also face a tough climate in 2020, when Pallister drops the PST to 7% and reminds voters that the NDP broke its promise and raised it, and voters will say, "what a breath of fresh air, a politician who keeps his promises."

So how do we overcome that to not only limit the damage he does to the province but to also show him the door next time?

2016 Manitoba Election - a general thread?

ikosmos — Sun, 03 Apr 2016 18:31:52 +0000

There are plenty of threads on specific issues, but none on the election in general. Why is that?

We have:

Manitoba Liberals resign

Wab Kinew will help the NDP

Manitoba Polls

Time for a New NDP Leader?

By election thread

etc.

But no thread about the election generally. hmm ...

More Manitoba Liberals Resign

jerrym — Thu, 31 Mar 2016 04:06:08 +0000

The Manitoba provincial election has revealed how deep the problems that the provinicial Liberal party have. It all began with the resignation of two candidates and the party's chief of staff in early March.

WINNIPEG -- The Manitoba Liberal Party lost another candidate and a staff member Monday -- the latest blow to the small party with a provincial election six weeks away.

Stephanie Danyluk dropped out of the race in the Winnipeg constituency of Fort Whyte, citing personal reasons. Her boyfriend, Spencer Fernando, resigned as the party's chief of staff.

If the Federal NDP gets wiped out in Manitoba, will Selinger FINALLY give up the MN NDP leadership?

Ken Burch — Mon, 19 Oct 2015 05:16:40 +0000

After all, the only reason the Dippers are in any trouble there federally is that the provincial NDP government is so deeply hated.

Would a wipeout there finally get Selinger to do the decent thing and go?

Old Stock Canadians: Arab Settlers in the Prairies

I knew about Saskatchewan's pulse crops, Kashmir Valley Chickpeas based in Outlook, SK, and our 70 percent portion of the world lentil export market. But I had no idea of the history:
