Hey all like a lot of other people my basment flooded.

Unfortunately I wasnt home and my sweet little tv hvs combo got water logged( for the second time) i havent turned it on yet as it think its still drying out. But i would love to know if anyone in the city does these kind of repairs?

Lastimw it worked but it was little wonky so im sure this time its just going to be worse.

I got engaged back in 2023 and originally had envisioned a wedding with around 50–75 people. But as time passed, we bought a house, got a new car, had a child, and everything else that comes with building a life together. We realized that putting thousands of dollars towards a big wedding just wasn’t a priority for us anymore.

Now that we have a child, I’d really like for all of us to share the same last name, and I think a small, intimate celebration with our immediate family would be perfect. I’m thinking roughly 20 people and just a few hours in the morning or afternoon with a nice meal, a few drinks, and a simple celebration.

I’m looking for ideas for something like this in Winnipeg! I’m leaning towards a winter wedding, so ideally I’d like to start planning now for something sometime after January.

I did look into City Hall, but from what I can tell, there doesn’t seem to be a weekend option? I’d love to hear any recommendations for small, intimate wedding venues or ideas!

After the heavy rain that just hit we just found out after it started smelling like shit at my friends house not sure what to do. I’ve seen some pics like this before, any advice is appreciated.

Let's take Walmart pricing for example (using 2% milk).

4L jug is $5.94 ($1.49/L)
2L carton is $4.22 ($2.11/L) - almost 42% more!
1L carton is $1.94 ($1.94/L)

I get that not everyone can drink 4L of milk, but a 1L carton is only $1.94, so it's cheaper to just buy 2 cartons of 1L milk than grab a 2L carton, and it takes up roughly the same amount of space in your fridge.

It's even worse if you're in a pinch and need to grab it from a convenience store like Shoppers Drug Mart: 4L jug is $5.98, 2L carton is $5.19 (a whopping $2.60/L), and a 1L carton is $2.03.

Am I missing something here?

I cannot safety my truck due to rust. I’m trying to sell it AS IS but I have had no interest. I don’t want to donate it because other, than the rust, the interior is mint and it has low kms. Does anyone have any suggestions to get rid of the vehicle and make a few bucks?

Happy Labour Day! Hope everyone is fairing okay after the storm.

I’m hoping for some insight & conversation about what I should do.

My car was hit really good with that big hail storm, took it to the same shop I always go to (who will remain nameless, they’re good people)

When I got it back after a month of being in the shop I noticed they had scratched my dash, I called them & they repaired it last week.

Now part of the repair was they replaced the windshield. This windshield now leaks pretty bad with the rain last night, I had a pool of water in my floor mat that eventually spilled over into the carpet underneath. The water was coming from behind the dash.

I have multiple concerns such as mold, corrosion, electrical water damage etc. I’ve vacuumed as much as I can but it’s obviously still wet underneath.

I’m curious if anyone has experienced this & how it was handled. I do plan on contacting mpi tomorrow, just was hoping to talk to some folks first.

Thanks!

Please avoid chevrier its deeper than it looks

Hey everyone,
If you are in Downtown Winnipeg today, you might see a massive, vibrant, and colorful procession filling the streets. This is Nagar Kirtan, a beautiful Sikh community celebration, and absolutely everyone—regardless of your background, race, or culture—is invited to come join the peace, religious music, and food!
With everything going on in the world lately, it can feel like people are growing apart. I really want to use today to spread kindness, share the culture, and bring our whole Winnipeg community closer together.
The Langar (Free Community Kitchen) has ALREADY started and will run for the next 5 to 6 hours! 🍲

Trying to figure out if it’s the culprit for how sick I am tonight. Had the burger from the PVG truck today and it’s the only thing I did differently than normal.

Unless there’s some kind of nasty stomach bug going around?

Hey Winnipeg

I hate asking this early, but I’m going to be laid up for a while and I want to ensure I have services in place before I need them.

I’m looking for recommendations for residential snow removal in south Winnipeg. If you have a service that you’re really happy with and want to share/recommend I’d love to hear it! All responses are appreciated.

TIA

Are there any good fish or seafood markets on the west side of town (West End, St. James)? Or do any of the supermarkets have a particularly good selection?

The Safeway on Ness is pretty meh, and places like Gimli Fish or Seafood City are out of the way for me.

Did hydro change the power outage map? It used to show how many customers are affected by an outage but I cannot see that anymore. Is it just my device or is this a change that happened with the large amounts of power outages that happened in our city this summer?

Idk if it’s the thunderstorm that did it, but it looks like the power’s gone out in basically all of South River Heights.

The outage map on the Hydro website says estimated restoration is at 10pm, but apparently that’s just based on the 3 hour estimate that it defaults to before they’ve even assessed the situation. Hydro’s socials put out a statement half an hour ago acknowledging outages in Elm Creek and Oakwood, still nothing about River Heights.

Has anyone else’s Shaw/ Roger’s internet been out since this afternoon?

Hi! Has anyone adopted / know if 'Sweet heart cat rescue' is legit? I see the woman who runs the page post online frequently asking for donations, but I don't see many posts of her trying to adopt the cats she is raising for. Some of her posts makes me question if she is a cat hoarder feeding off of people's empathy by stating she is a rescue. Anyone? 🤔

Looking for a barber shop for my Pepere. He doesn’t need something fancy and doesn’t know what a fade is despite the fact he was a barber for decades. He wants an old man who will do an “old man haircut” at a reasonable price. Preferably St Bonafice/St Vital areas. If anyone knows of a barber who hasn’t yet retired and is available for walk-ins in the afternoons on either tuesdays or fridays, please let us know! Thanks!

So I was thinking of how I would fund things if I ran the province/city.

One of the things I want is for all schools to have AC. WSD estimates that this would cost between $130-200M.

If the school levy on property taxes was increased by $10 per $100,000 of property value collected each year for all properties (based on google estimate of $100B worth of properties in Winnipeg) this would amount to $100M extra per year.

So in 2 years WSD would have all their AC done. And with 5-8 years I’d estimate all of the schools in the city would be done.

Based on an average home price of just over $400k this would cost an average of $40/year per home. Not sure how much for commercial properties but the formula is the same.

I feel like I must be missing something here. It always comes across as this insanely expensive thing that can’t possibly be done and the employees and students must suffer because it’s just more than we could ever afford.

But $40/year or $400 in ten years is so little. This can’t be right.

Those of you have gone to small claims and won, were you able to get money back?
There’s a contractor ghosting us (I posted before and received a lot of helpful advice). We want to take him to small claims. Any advice appreciated please thanks

Moved the Winnipeg a few years ago and always wonder who made the ‘PRESS ON’ tags on the bridges and stuff around the city? I always like when I see them and I was wondering if the artist is known - probs not but ya never know until ya ask!!!!

To everyone in Manitoba living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) or HSD:

I need you to join me.

EDS/HSD affects connective tissue, which is what helps hold our joints, muscles, ligaments, blood vessels and other tissues together. For some of us, it can cause severe instability, chronic pain, repeated dislocations, problems with breathing and swallowing, blood flow issues and other serious complications.

For me, it has affected almost every part of my life.

I have severe instability throughout my body, including cervical instability in my neck. I have struggled with breathing and swallowing, severe pain, repeated joint problems and problems that may involve blood flow. Yesterday, I passed out.

I have spent years trying to get appropriate medical care. I have been forced to look outside Manitoba for specialized care because I have not been able to access the expertise I need here.

And I know the answer cannot simply be “send everyone out of province.”

We need to build this expertise in Manitoba.

Long term, we need a dedicated EDS/HSD clinic with a specialized multidisciplinary team. We need geneticists, physicians, physiotherapists, orthospine specialists, orthoshoulder specialists and surgeons who actually understand how EDS changes the way these conditions need to be assessed and treated.

We should be sending Manitoba healthcare professionals to established EDS centres in the US to receive specialized training and bring that knowledge back to Manitoba, where they can train other healthcare professionals.

We also need better access to diagnosis, POTS testing and treatment, physiotherapy and other appropriate services.

But there is a huge problem:

Some of us are sick right now.

We cannot wait years for Manitoba to build this expertise.

I and many others are already dealing with serious medical problems. For people in urgent or potentially life threatening situations, access to specialized care outside Manitoba or Canada may be the only realistic option while Manitoba develops the expertise we need here.

So we need to do both.

Build the system Manitoba should have.

And provide emergency access to the specialized care people need right now.

That brings me to the question Manitoba needs to answer:

WHERE IS THE CARE FOR EDS/HSD IN MANITOBA?

If you have EDS/HSD, please DM me.

I want to hear what has happened to you. What care have you been able to access? What have you been denied? Have you had to travel outside Manitoba? Have you been told that care exists here, but then been unable to find anyone who can actually provide it?

And most importantly, how has the lack of appropriate care affected your life?

We need to show that this is not just my story.

There are thousands of Manitobans living with EDS/HSD. We deserve access to appropriate care too.

If you have EDS/HSD, please reach out. Join me in pushing for change.

Manitoba needs to answer one simple question:

WHERE IS THE CARE FOR EDS/HSD IN MANITOBA?

How is there not a warning for that?

Hi I am looking for an apartment that will allow my almost 70 lb golden retriever mix. Hoping to find something located around transcona or north kildonan or any place on that side of the city!
