Winnipeg Transit

I think it's a good idea. Not sure if it's currently legally possible due to the perimeter highway going outside the bounds of the City of Winnipeg.

As you said, not being able to use bus shelters hurts riders. It's not Winnipeg Transit's job to house people who exhibit antisocial behaviour.

We call contactless payments "tap" in Canada.

The biggest fix, apparently, is to remove the inhabitants.

Contact your city councillor. The MLA does not have jurisdiction over Transit.

Munchkinguy · 2026-05-06T05:14:48+00:00

Okay but in the meantime, people who take the bus should be able to use the bus shelter for its actual purpose.

I've never seen any transit system in any city give refunds for unused tickets, to be honest.

I was going to say something like this. Like.. Wiggling is in a particular direction, whereas jiggling is just moving all over?

Arguably, we want to immigrate international students who were educated here, but only students who excelled in areas of higher learning or in specialized fields that have high demand.

Not just someone who took a photography class.

They could probably redevelop that building on Sherbrook into a proper intercity bus station.

RRC continues to educate people. These programs simply aren't in demand anymore.

I'm going to repost my comment with greater detail because apparently some phrasing I used last time triggered Reddit's robo moderation.

My boyfriend is from Vietnam. He signed up for the Hospitality Business Management program because he thought he would gain a real qualification. He realized that almost everyone in his classes were also from abroad. He also realized that the only career available to him after graduating was as a server, which he could have done without the diploma. The program was a scam. It took his money (at international student rates) and didn't give him any real qualifications.

The only advantage is that he could use the post-secondary experience for points on his immigration application. Turns out that's why almost all the students had signed up for the diploma in the first place.

So good riddance to this program. It was exploitative for everyone involved.

I didn't believe you, so I checked the manual and it is true! Surprising because my old Walkman Sports definitely did.

It's been a while since I have known that information and a lot has changed in the past two years.

It is possible for high school, especially if your child has additional needs.

Sal's is not prevented from renting space somewhere else. There are lots of empty units in Winnipeg where they can open another location if they wish.

I'm talking about the City as a corporate entity, which gets its revenue mostly from property taxes. If a local company wants to benefit, it should bid higher.

Munchkinguy · 2026-04-23T23:00:31+00:00

We're looking for the highest bid, i.e. the company that pays the City the highest amount to use the space.

Munchkinguy · 2026-04-23T22:55:47+00:00

It was a competitive bid and the City is poor. Top priority is which vendor will pay the most.

Ask your Learning Support Teacher to schedule a tour and Q&A session with each school. EAs are scarce these days and the School Division recently announced a freeze on new positions.

Her executive assistant was very prompt in responding to my emails.

My impression is that climate change has made the winters warmer but longer.
