When two Winnipeg encampments that had more than 30 people living in them were about to be cleared earlier this summer, outreach groups, government officials and housing facilitators sprang into action.

Collaboration, compassion and a clear sense of purpose among non-profit agencies and government recently moved more than 30 people out of homeless encampments and into supportive housing

The province needs to declare a public health emergency. Expand safe supply programs and open multiple safe consumption sites Now anything less is saying we are ok with hundreds of manitobans dying

As someone who grew up idolizing independent record labels like Dischord and Matador I was fascinated (in a sad way) by this @nicksylvester.bsky.social piece on the diminished role of the indie in today’s music industry
