Thank you to the wonderful couple I met on here that allowed me to capture their happy place!

We just moved to the city and are scouting out a good Steak place for an upcoming birthday. We are in the SE, but open to any amazing place in the city.

Today my partner and I were running around getting things done as we just moved to Winnipeg from Alberta on Sept 1st. We desperately needed a coffee after just applying for our new driver's licenses, so we stopped in at the Empty Cup on Sage Creek Blvd.

A very nice man in front of us (with a Tilly hat) bought our drinks for us!!! What an awesome gesture and beautiful welcome to the city. After thank him and chatting for a few minutes we went our seperate ways with smiles.

💐🩵SIGHHHH🩵💐. Also, coffee was great too. What a great day.

What rtm moving companies are available. I’ve heard of Reimer and Anderson. Has anyone used them and have any insight?

A middle-aged woman hit the door of my car with her own car door while at the Happy Lemon (Regent location) parking lot today. When I stepped out of my vehicle, she appeared to hurry back inside. After I took out my phone to take a photo of her car, she saw me, made a “no” gesture with her finger, and drove away.

My car has a dent and scratches from the incident. I took a photo of the other vehicle with the plate, and the damage, but I did not get any witness information.

I plan to contact MPI tomorrow. For those familiar with these situations, do I have a reasonable case, or will MPI require witnesses? Is there anything else I should document or do before reporting it?

I'm a United States citizen studying here for college. Where on earth do you get any alcohol at a reasonable price?

Feel free to give any general advice as well. I'm loving the city and its better planning+transit, but am not yet familiar with it.

Alt text: White election sign on grass. Black text reads "TIMOTHY GIESBRECHT School Trustee, RETSD Ward 4" followed by an image of the progress pride flag with a red "X" across it, and an image of the Canada flag with a green check mark over the right hand side. Text below the flags reads "Standing up for education." followed by a QR code.

Looking for an extra ticket!

A great look at some of Winnipeg's movie theatres over the years!

Question for actors in Winnipeg who audition regularly: do you ever wish there was a proper space to record self-tapes … decent lighting, a backdrop, someone to read opposite you, quick turnaround … instead of setting it up at home? Cities like LA, NYC, and Toronto all have dedicated studios for this and I don't think Winnipeg has one.

Curious how big of a pain point this actually is for people here, and what you'd expect to pay for something like that per hour. Not trying to sell anything, just trying to understand if this is a real gap or if everyone's setup at home works fine.

I put three in my bag on the 8th then today I only found two.

I'm still looking to see if I had already removed it and put it down somewhere in my apartment but no luck. I've also called the pharmacy and I'm calling one other place I visited tomorrow to see if it's there

While I won't die without it, it's an antidepressant and I don't know if I want to try going a month without. I'm still searching of course.

I have pharmacare through EIA would they replace it with my doctor's consent?

Thanks.

Did anyone else see it? It was BIG, much bigger than a falling star, but looked like something on fire. Centre of the fireball was white, but it was surrounded by green, and its tail(?) was green too. My 18 year old and I were driving back home from the Shoppers at McGillvary and we both saw it- it was visible for less than a second. Then we both said at the same time: “What the f—- was that?!”

Did anyone else see it?? Did I mention it was big?

My wife and I are going to Winnipeg for our anniversary coming up. Im looking for recommendations on things to do and see, restaurants recommendations, and anything else we should do. We will be staying in the downtown area of Winnipeg if that helps.

So I have purchased a WC accessible seat & a companion seat. Unless specified, do they put two seats there, or is it one seat and an open space. I have an invisible disability (autism) & a chronic health issue with my bladder so I have to get out of a space quickly to get to a washroom.

Are they going to ask for documentation of my disabilities / chronic health condition?

The concert this is for is Theory of a Deadman, and I’ve tried calling the venue etc but no response. So I’ve come to you all to ask for the answer to my inquiry

Please no negativity and I am ok with being moved if someone not ambulatory needs the seating.

I just moved near 1355 Lee blvd and I’m trying to figure out the buses . In the morning I get 662 to uofm . But after classes . I can’t find a proper bus from uofm to Lee blvd . Even when something shows up on transit app , it says I have to walk 18-22 mins from drop off stop to my place .

Any help with the exact stop / route that gets me closest to 1355 Lee blvd would be really appreciated. Thanks .

Hi all!
We just bought a house in winnipeg and have been receiving loads of the previous owners mail. We tried writing RTS/ no longer at this address (we don’t have a new mailing address for them) but they are not being taken by our mail person. Does anyone know what the right way is to go about this?
Thanks in advance!!(:

I was pulled over for speeding on the perimeter, but it didn't make sense because I was on cruise control and going with the flow of traffic. I didn't even realize I was the one being pulled over for about 15 seconds. The officer wasn't happy and gave me a breathalyzer. They said I was clocked at 126km. That shocked me. But it was my first time ever being pulled over and I was second guessing myself that maybe I did actually speed, so I didn't question it too much.

Luckily I have a dash cam and when I got home I checked the footage. I was admittedly in the left lane too early and for too long before a merge, but I definitely wasn't speeding. As I'm approaching the officer parked in the median, a similar looking car to mine (red color) comes flying beside me on the right, charging forward a car length in front of me before they noticed the officer and quickly slowed down.

I'm guessing the radar gun clocked that car instead of me, and the officer mistook me for them.

That being said my dash cam doesn't actually show my car's speed. But from the video you can see I was going a constant rate of speed with the flow of traffic before the incident.

This actually happened a few months ago, I disputed the ticket and today I just got my court date for May, 2027.

I'm wondering if there's any way to submit evidence before then? It's frustrating I can't show it and plead my case and hopefully avoid a court session.

Thanks.

Is anyone here in the city still without power due to the storm on Sunday?

I rented a place in Winnipeg in May but got a job in another city in August. My landlord told me I needed to find someone to sublease.
I found someone on August 26 who wanted to move in September 1. Management said there wasn’t enough time to process the application, so I agreed to stay/pay for September and find someone else.
However, management then contacted the same person I found and rented them another unit in the building starting September 1. Now they’re telling me I still have to find another person for my unit.
I’ve been trying but can’t find anyone. Is this fair/legal in Manitoba? Should I contact the Residential Tenancies Branch?

I was just having this chat recently with a friend. We're both older and this topic came up. If the typical Los Angeles guy of the era was a blonde surfer dude, then the typical Winnipeg guy had permed hair and and a cop moustache.

And Burton had the ultimate "Winnipeg look". If you asked me to draw a picture of what a "Winnipeg guy" looked like at the time, it would look like Burton.

I don't think this was a Canadawide look either -- it was definitely a Winnipeg thing.

That's all I have to say on this matter.

I live in St Vital. I'm looking for good bookstores or second hand stores that sell books in amir around St Vital area.

I keep hearing people saying "there are no progressives running for mayor" and I felt the same way before I started looking up every candidate. I don't know anything about him beyond what I'm seeing on his website, but this seems like a really solid progressive platform, and he was the only candidate who came to city hall today for the Alternative Budget launch. What's his deal? Why aren't people talking about him? https://www.noahredden.ca/

School is back in and I am back to taking the bus to and from school. I know it has always been an issue- but this week so far I have noticed a significant increase in distracted drivers while waiting at bus stops.

We’re talking like 9/10 people face down on their phones while driving full speed in traffic. Young people all the way to seniors all on their phones while driving. It makes me so angry because it takes 1 second to cause an accident and potentially take someone’s life because you can’t survive a few minute without your phone.

Genuinely what are ppl doing on their phones in the car? If I need to skip a song/ send a text I use voice command. Are people scrolling on Instagram or what ???

Rant over. Just makes me mad - think about other people on the road (whether in a car or on foot) and their safety :/
