Mayoral stuff is… ugh. Looking at @ShaunLoney platform, specifically reducing police spending by having them pay non-profits for the value of workload reduction. My questions is… how?! Council can’t dictate what WPS spend their $ on, just how much they have. 1/
As @bkives and @WpgPoliceHarm have pointed out. This sounds like the potential to overload already overloaded orgs. This, to me, fundamentally doesn’t do anything to deal with the root issues of policing. @ShaunLoney why this? 2/
It seems like a play to not seem too left to those on the right who are against any police reform/defunding. It also seems cons’esque in the style of offloading public services to outside orgs, in this case non-profits.

“CBC's decision means no women and no Black people will be involved in this debate."
“CBC's decision means no women and no Black people will be involved in this debate."
"This is unconscionable and does not reflect the diversity of Winnipeg, Manitoba or Canada.
“I understand CBC's concern to avoid the often silly antics of the last televised mayoral debate."

2/ After years of investigations, revelations of backroom deals and lawsuits related to City of Winnipeg land deals and awarded contracts, we must take the first steps in restoring public trust in City Hall.
3/ Under the City of Winnipeg Charter Act, EPC is established and councillors are appointed by the mayor with broad guidelines regarding its make up.

@energy106fm & Evanov tried to make me feel like I am disposable.
Does @cityofwinnipeg define them as reputable?

3.2.e: "Only appear in reputable publications." How is it defined? Opinions: not part of #diversity & inclusion. Reputable is an opinion.
Ex: @energy106fm affirmed values & visions to be “one of the strongest media allies to the #LGBTQ community."

Before that, #Energy hired Dave Wheeler, a host released from his last radio position. The release was due to #transphobic #comments after receiving suspensions for racist comments.

04/28: I spoke to the @cityofwinnipeg supporting the SPIRIT of the "Corporate Advertising Policy.”
A randy night at the senior's centre has more teeth than this #policy.
It took #Winnipeg months to put "We prefer #kindness" in print.
