MEDIA RELEASE: “The 1-Hour City Conspiracy.” If you are traditional or new media and would like to write, talk, or post about the REAL conspiracy in cities, read our media release, and send us a DM for more information. It’s already making BIG waves! And allies, please help share this. #UrbanTruth
Media release from the Urban Truth Collective on the #1HourCityConspiracy.

“The campaign exposes the truth about those lies, while revealing that the real evidence-supported conspiracy, involving many of the same well-financed actors, is the one that’s created the one hour city. Rather than having life‘s essentials close by, in this one hour city, private sector lobbying and marketing over many decades has led to government decisions that separate and spread our communities out…”

The dismal climate record of provincial NDP governments undermines the ability of Gazan and other federal MP's to be effective critics. If the federal party did more to pressure provincial NDP governments on electoral reform, climate, and social justice I believe the federal party could succeed.

If Premier Kinew was serious about affordability, he'd be pulling out all the stops to get people OUT of their gas guzzlers, like the F150 Raptors his govt loves, and INTO public transit, active transport and EVs. I'll wait. #EnergyTransition #MbPoli www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

In a conversation today, someone called a city "Anti-Car" as though it was a bad thing, and I found myself speechless. My thought is the more hostile to cars a city is, the better it is to live in or visit.

Amber Bracken is one of Canada’s greatest photojournalists, and for the RCMP to mistake observers for participants, arrest her and prevent her from doing her vital work is a deeply dangerous precedent. This case is important for all of us.

We built a network that was meant to sacrifice some convenience and proximity for frequent service, and then Mayor Gillingham and Councillor Lukes didn’t deliver frequent service. Maybe if they weren’t so focused on suburban road expansion they could fund the damn bus.

If you’re outraged at the danger on our roads, come make a plan for how we’ll change them.
WHOSE KID IS NEXT?
Two kids in crosswalks on their way to school have been hit by drivers already this month. Both had serious injuries.
Our roads are failing our kids, and we don't have to accept it.

Can WInnipeg try this please before we add a single lane for motorists anywhere. Just try free transit for three years, and see what happens. It'll still be cheaper than any extension of Chief Peguis Trail, and move more people

Many Winnipeggers took time out of their day today to express their disappointment at the lack of any safety improvements to Wellington Cr and were silenced by our gov't - how does Cllr. Orlikow get 5 mins to speak to 5 inanimate street parking spots but those who want their child to be safe don't?

Janice Lukes is a liar and a bad human being. She’s got no heart. Rob Jenner’s widow, Wendy Van Loon, was in the gallery today when Janice Lukes moved not to hear from 30 delegations duly registered to speak. Rob was killed a year ago to the day that this agenda dropped, further delaying action.
