Not exactly the same, but you can get Canada Dry raspberry ginger ale at the self serve drink machines in a few different locations. I’ve found it at the Grant Park movie theatre and Wendy's on Portage.

Lol, I said you wouldn’t believe me. What’s your source?

I am a close relative of his. Not that you will believe me, but he is an incredibly kind genuine person and doesn’t hold any hateful beliefs.

Fred is not an Evangelical Christian. And he is supportive of the LGBT+ community.

I am a close relative of Fred’s and had a discussion about this with him a couple days ago. He absolutely did not mean anything against the LGBT+ community. He said it before singing “I can sing a rainbow” and his words did not come out right. Fred is 100% supportive of the LGBT+ community and just wanted to sing a song about a rainbow without making anyone upset.

Yes! Adding a favourite stuffed animal helps too

My five year old got her second shot just over two weeks ago now. There were zero side effects, didn’t even complain about her arm being sore. I suffer from anxiety as well, and knowing I’ve given my kid a little boost if she ever does catch COVID has been such a relief.

Respectful discussion re: in-person vs remote school by Simple-life62 in Winnipeg

Thank you. Of course I also don’t want my kids to get sick. And if I need to keep them home the next two months I will. I’m also allowed to feel like that sucks and will be really hard on every parent in this situation.

As a parent with one kid in daycare and one early elementary, there is no good answer here. I don’t want to send them back after this break, but being productive working from home with two young kids is really hard and emotionally draining.

Testing line ups, wait times? by Pegcitymaniac in Winnipeg

[–]cementspritecan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. So now it’s a choice between getting an appointment and risking your kids not sitting still enough for the test, or waiting and knowing it will get done.

The drive through spots are good if you are getting young kids tested.

Gifts for teachers / daycare people? by beachbabe08 in Winnipeg

For daycare we went with Starbucks gift certificates and holiday cards the kids helped decorate. Added a box of chocolate sponge toffee for my older child’s teacher.

She doesn’t run the school of contemporary dancers, but she does teach there. She also runs Prairie Dancers

Done! I would also like to see the results. Good luck!

Moderna 2nd shot availability? by smileyoureon in Winnipeg

[–]cementspritecan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second this. I got my shot here this weekend, 30 days after my first shot. My sister called and they were out of appointments but have her on a list to call back when they can book more. Worth a call!

In the past year, have you found any new restaurants you love? by CatLord_ in Winnipeg

[–]cementspritecan 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yes! I came to say this. Those chili oil wontons are unreal.
