What an incredible win! Congratulations @WabKinew

We started our campaign believing in you – the people of Manitoba. And in return, so many of you put your faith in us. You came out to support us – some for the very first time. You made calls & knocked doors. You voted. From the bottom of my heart – Thank you. Merci. Miigwech.

Well this just made my day - @museumofvan , you continue to do great collaborations!


Fully agree - so many recent closures of destination small businesses- all rent-increase related.

You know how municipalities and other gov’ts try to incentivize/attract certain large businesses and corporations…would be kinda cool if developers, cities, or neighborhood associations would do the same for “unique” community-based small businesses.
