Does the LL have to pay for their temporary accommodations? That's super short notice to vacate.

That community is a disaster and it's understandable why given the history. I've been there a handful of times for work and hope to never return. The people are just off.

Not sure if you're failing at Dad jokes or just generally being pedantic but this isn't helpful or funny. Take that shit over to Reddit if you must be that way.

C'mon, it was his hair and we all know that.

That's so lovely of them to volunteer their weekends and off hours to participate in the search.

Oh wait! They're actually just lining up with their hand out to get in on the frenzy of money that would start flowing if the province went ahead with the search.

Silly me.

There really isn't. We build through the winter in Winnipeg and it's miserable. A union carpenter can make 100k with a bit of overtime though so some guys will keep signing up....but not enough of them.

I was in Vancouver for the first time a few weeks ago. It was bustling, had to make reservations at the restaurant's we wanted to eat at and noted how active Stanley park was. Granville Island was packed.

If it were any busier I wouldn't have enjoyed it as much.

I've been fascinated by poop transplants for years now, especially with the potential for changing autism and treatment resistant mental health issues research.

My kids will be making donations haha. This is great.

The Union in Winnipeg is powerful enough to bankrupt the City not only morally but financially as well so I'd say ya.

They also cover up for drunk driving cops who murder civilians and keep abusive cops on the rolls but that's standard right?

If the cops come wipe these guys out after getting buddy buddy with the konvoy last year, I hope the City fucking riots.

I'm here to stay. Get used to it. ;)

Prolly can't read the English manuals to figure out how to turn it back on.

According to some people here, you're a terrible person for not just letting these people come into your home and giving them all your food and money.

I feel like there's a whole lot of people in this thread that don't have a f****** clue what it's like to be involved with this unfortunate segment of society.

IIRC, meat and sunshine have a more severe rating than aspartame.....

This is fear mongering. Nothing's changed.

People shouldn't be getting their news from places that manipulate algorithms to prevent you from seeing a full spectrum of information anyways.

This is a good thing for Canadians, even if it seems inconvenient ATM.

It somewhat seems that people who have not been victims of the devastation causes by the expansion of homeless encampments want those that have been to stay quiet. My brother gets woken up multiple times a week because someone lights a fire under the bridge next to his apartment building. I had to leave a once wonderful neighborhood because of needles at the playground, and an explosion of property crime and violence. At some point, the safety of the general public needs to be taken into account, and when fire and needles enter the picture, I'm comfortable in stating that's the time.

Because in the past when I’ve lived in places that have had this happen, the situation grows rapidly and the park near my house became unusable for the neighborhood while property crime got so bad that wheel chairs were being stolen from kids at the park for scrap metal. If I start to see this trending in that direction, I will absolutely be contacting the City Councilor as well as the police to prevent it from escalating. I’m not willing to have my neighborhood get turned into an encampment, and if you think I'm a bastard for that, I’m fine with that. I have no issues with my kids playing next to someone camping out because they have nowhere to go, I have major issues with my kids playing next to discarded needles. We say hi to the guy when we've seen him, I say good morning to him when he pokes his head up on the morning walks. He's not lesser than anyone because he sleeps in a tent, but if one morning I walk by and it's a tent city, with needles scattered around, and a burned out fire then all bets are off and I'm choosing my family's safety & neighborhood over the people who are making the situation unsafe.

I work with multiple shelters in our city, one of them my family has supported for 3 generations now starting with my grandmother cooking meals there up to today where I consult with them on their plans to expands their services to keep helping people. I'm pretty open to finding ways to support people who have no where to go, but that doesn't mean I'm willing to let another neighborhood get destroyed in the process, which is exactly what happened to the last one and will unquestionably happen to this one as well.

I work with a homeless shelter in town, they are aware of his location- I saw him up on their board the last time I was there. That means he's been offered assistance and has declined it. That is often because of drug usage issues, even though this shelter doesn't require you to be sober to use it.

I'm in Winnipeg... I live in one of the 'nicer' mature neighborhoods, with parks and schools every couple of blocks. This is happening everywhere.

Some dude who appears to be experiencing some housing issues pitched a tent in the park I walk my dog in daily. We play with the kids there quite often and it's a hub for families in the area with a Jewish education center and old folks home surrounding it. The homeless guy doesn't appear to be bothering anyone and keeps his area tidy.... I'm a bit torn as to whether or not to report him or ask the cops to rustle him out or whether to just leave him be. Having him relocated isn't solving anything, and might just put him back under a bridge where he likely isn't safe to stay. I know he'll be gone by winter though, if he starts lighting fires to keep warm he'll be gone in a hurry.

It's almost like these people want to act like they haven't had notice this is coming. The entire point is to phase out infrastructure that isn't relevant anymore.

Oil and gas infrastructure is becoming irrelevant quickly. Adapt, evolve or die.
