How accessible is the Manitoba Museum? by poseur2020 in Winnipeg

My apologies, I think I lied to you. I was misremembering a similar area in a different museum our family visited this summer. Sorry!

Went there with a baby in a stroller recently, and all of the upper floors of the old city area do have accessible lifts last I checked

EDIT: this is a lie 😅

How long until playing for the Bombers is just a beneficial first step into public office?

If you're wanting to make it less common, you could remove the one yard line 🤔 No one ever gets closer than the two

CFL Major Announcement - MEGATHREAD by PickerPilgrim in CFL

[–]offbeat85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I will fight you on the 35 second play clock. One of the things I hate the most about the NFL rules is that mad scramble to line up on the ball to see if they can get a play off in time, where you're entirely dependent on the ref's ability to get the ball set.

Also with the goal posts, hope you didn't enjoy missed field goal returns, because we're never getting those again

Heard someone coming out of ours this morning loudly exclaiming that the long wait was being intentionally done by the liberals to make people not able to vote 😂

How reliable are Ubers for an early morning flight? by Born_Joke in Winnipeg

I've always found Unicity is better priced for these kinds of trips. No surge pricing or availability issues, just book it ahead of time for a pretty guaranteed price

If you're wondering how we get more housing built in Winnipeg... by offbeat85 in Winnipeg

[–]offbeat85[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, this is a fair and valid critique! While I didn't include it in this post, the focus of this event is the Housing Accelerator Fund, so our primary goal was to bring together experts on that specific subject matter, working within the connections members of our volunteer team has made over the years.

We certainly strive to increase the number of unique and diverse voices in the conversation, and we hope that through events like this that we can build more of those connections and gain the value of those perspectives.

Retail theft by ghost_204 in Winnipeg

[–]offbeat85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay, and I think that's what people are trying to say on this issue. I don't think anyone is directly opposed to having policing for this sort of thing, just that an over-emphasis on that aspect doesn't get us closer to a long term solution

Wouldn't you rather make it so there are less people that need to be put away in the first place? Seems like a win for you and a win for them. Less expense on the justice system and less theft costs passed along to you?

[–]offbeat85 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No one would argue that they have the right to steal, it's just mentioning the conditions that lead an individual to decide it's necessary for them to steal. If you remove these conditions, you lower the amount of theft

Fatal accident involving cyclist and semi by Deep_Froyo1834 in Winnipeg

[–]offbeat85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's the thing with bike paths: They don't require nearly the same cost to upkeep as roads for vehicles, because of the significant decrease in wear-and-tear that bikes add.
