And this is why I'm glad I live here.

Do you really believe what he is saying? I think he's playing the game and apparently it seems to be working!

Have you seen how beautiful most bigger cities traffic systems are compared to Winnipeg? I could see this point if Winnipeg had a nice super high way that could get you from each end of the city without stopping..., we don't have this and the *best* option we have is going down Portage and main. The city should be focusing on improving traffic flow ... rather then slowing it down even more.

It's funny that you say that because in the past Free Press and Sun articles the comment section was heavily leaning towards leaving them up. I don't really see Synergy between the Forks and Portage/Main? It's to far of a distance to merge them together. If the city wants to do a combo they shouldn't they focus on re-doing Broadway and making that a focal point since that is a closer walk? I just don't see how taking them down will attract the average person downtown? It doesn't fix the issue of downtown feeling unsafe and offering little to nothing for the average person to come down for?

I watched some videos of the Anti Trump protesters in San Jose... it has to be a plan by Trump to win the election. I can't imagine normal people acting that insane and pretty much pushing people to vote for Trump based on their behavior.

http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/mayors-approve-of-opening-portage--main-to-pedestrians-381805961.html I know this has been an ongoing topic for many years.... Does anyone think that taking down the concrete barriers at Portage and Main is a good idea? I've read the comments sections in the Sun and Free Press over the years and it seems that a vast majority of people are against this. Myself I think it's a terrible idea purely because it will kill the businesses underground and the even greater issue is that it will be very dangerous for pedestrians. I don't really see why the mayor thinks that by doing this it will bring the people downtown? I would assume making downtown safer would be a much higher priority to attract the people? Any thoughts?

To change the subject.... Jollibees opening up on St James!

Are you trying to justify raping a 13 year old? Yowza

So many double standards everywhere with Polanski and this story: http://www.canada.com/news/texas+teacher+allegedly+impregnated+year+during+parent+approved/11957244/story.html It somewhat reminds me of the South Park episode where Ike was having an affair with his teacher and because the teacher was hot all the police guys were saying.... "niiiiiiiice". IMO a crime is a crime , their is a reason why police have cold case sections.... just because time has passed it doesn't mean justice shouldn't be served. Also just because a teacher is hot... or a man is rich... shouldn't make a difference in how someone is punished... Anyone getting raped... never the less when they are a child.... that's horrendous and the criminal should be punished at the fullest. How about instead of jail time they cut off Roman's polish sausage?

Cutting logs isn't that bad... the oskee wee wee waa waa stuff in Hamilton was and is cringe worthy...

I'm pretty sure his life has been much better then alternate fate of going to jail for a long time....

The Kodi streams seem to be pretty hit and miss last year... some games it was perfect 720p goodness. Other times I resorted to streaming sites which are the poops ...

So did Gandhi but people revered him.... Clearly MJ was messed in the head... but to call him a child rapist without any concrete proof is kind of harsh. It doesn't matter for Polanski... who cares how much time has passed... the guy deserves a worse fate then what he has had.

Double standards that for some reason apply to celebrities.... Money talks I suppose.

The guy was also misused on our team.... he doesn't handle being covered by two guys well and gets lost in traffic. Edmonton is really smart and gets the ball to him quick and he really burns teams with his YAC.

All I know is Dressler catches nearly everything thrown to him and has burned our team and other teams many a times. The guy is money!

I see Pavs going to a team who are down a goalie (injury) and desperate to have a veteran starter for the play off chase. Stuart would be an easy trade to make.... but I don't see the team giving him up.

I could see Pavelec being shipped regardless of the playoff situation *if* Helle has won the starting role.

Oh come on now... dear lord that's pitiful

Definitely Dressler! The only reason is because it would break Rider fans hearts to see him tear it up and lead the league in receiving while wearing Blue and Gold. To me it would be the equivalent had Stegall left us for them. The sheer heart break would be massive. Imagine if Dressler ends up playing 3 - 4 seasons with us and then retires as a Bomber... it would be great!

Is their a Luciano Borsato Jr tearing it up anywhere?

I never once mentioned the industry being impacted. Stop twisting stories. I said the highest percent chance of troubles arising would be at the bars because of the drunk factor. I pretty much agreed with your point for the most part and yet you still need to twist and disagree? It's weird.
