scottgillingham.bsky.social @scottgillingham.bsky.social · 23/01/2026I honour the 158 Canadian soldiers killed in Afghanistan. They didn’t “stay a little back, a little off the front lines.” Their familes have a folded Canadian flag and lifetime of sorrow because Canada showed up when America called. 090
scottgillingham.bsky.social @scottgillingham.bsky.social · 20/01/2026Winnipeg has officially crossed the 850,000 resident mark, and we saw the 5th highest total population increase in Canada last year. Big numbers mean big responsibility. This confirms why we need to double down on housing and strategic infrastructure like the new North End Sewage Treatment Plant. 050
scottgillingham.bsky.social @scottgillingham.bsky.social · 14/11/2025Winnipeg’s 2026 preliminary budget is fully balanced and makes generational investments in our city’s future — while keeping property taxes the lowest in Canada. 320
scottgillingham.bsky.social @scottgillingham.bsky.social · 06/11/2025One of the things that really bothers me downtown is seeing garbage bins sitting wide open and trash on the sidewalks. We’re fixing that. New lockable bins are being installed along Main St & Portage Ave to help keep downtown cleaner. If they work as well as we expect, we’ll look to add more. 420
scottgillingham.bsky.social @scottgillingham.bsky.social · 05/11/2025Think Winnipeg’s property taxes are high compared to other cities? Here’s a surprise — they’re actually the lowest among major Canadian cities for a typical home. I’ll be sharing more info about how Winnipeg stacks up ahead of the November 14 city budget. 160

scottgillingham.bsky.social @scottgillingham.bsky.social · 15/08/2025Alexander Docks will become one of Winnipeg’s great riverfront parks — a place for everyone to gather, reflect and enjoy the water. The Forks has a strong record of developing and maintaining public spaces that are engaging and safe, and I’m confident they’ll do the same here. 0194
