Welcome
Over a number of years you have come to know me as the Winnipeg Transit bus operator driving the route numbers 15 Sargent, 14 Ellice,
12 William, 71 Arlington, and routes 11 and 55. A number of you have seen me advocate for childcare, which resulted in $200 million spent for the first time for childcare in this province, and the largest daycare built in Southdale.
With only a handful of volunteers, we have managed to successfully put the City of Winnipeg on a better recycling path with the name change from Garbage Day to Recycle Day. We then followed up this event with a Reusable Bag Day, which promoted Reusable Bags instead of plastic bags in our shopping malls, grocery stores and our community. Pushing for a more sustainable future for our children is our goal.
Reducing crime and creating a safer neighbourhood is all a part of our dream. With the encouragement of a few, I was able to get enough signatures through a petition to have the City of Winnipeg instruct the Police Dept to put video surveillance equipment in high crime areas as one means of reducing criminal elements in our community.
We have, to date, over 600 signatures for our petition to increase core funding for inner-city groups such as the Spence Neighbourhood Association as well as others. We all need to continue to be proactive and fight for our community in an effort to achieve stability, growth, business development, reduce crime and to solve the lack of affordable housing for our community.
Join me in this fight. Together, we can do it!! With a small group we have accomplished a lot – So Far. This is not impossible to do.
It’s Time for Change!!
