Freelance used to be a temporary condition between staff jobs, it's now the longterm norm. If photojournalism is going to survive, we need to fundamentally rethink our labour relationships.

[UPoC - United Photojournalists of Canada @PhotojsUnited]

Two photojournalists have been laid off from non-union Postmedia combined newsrooms—one each from The Edmonton Sun/Journal and The Calgary Sun/Herald. Typically the first workers affected by cuts, freelancers now make up the majority of working photojournalists.

@ChrisDca Part of good marketing is knowing your audience. As someone who's lived in Winnipeg 20+ years, I think they either don't know the city well, or they don't consider the majority of Winnipeggers their audience. Cheaper to get Jets, or Bombers, merch to show ome city pride.

@elishadacey IMO, this is also peak 'modern' Winnipeg, though. "We are going to have cool new things, but most of you won't be able to afford/access them." Or, "if we overprice it they will (hopefully) come." Made of what's real, but not realistic.

@dhalmark The slogan also works 🤔

@mister_mulligan @DoubleEmMartin Winnipeg loves it's Simpsons refreneces more than any other place I've lived. But, I'd have gone with this one…

[Daniel Crump @DannyBoyCrump]

@DoubleEmMartin I genuinely can't believe one of the local breweries (most likely Nonsuch) didn't come up with the logo first.

[Daniel Crump @DannyBoyCrump]

My first thought was Michael Moorcock's symbol for chaos from the Eternal Champions stories. Also popularized by fantasy games such as D&D and anarchist elements of the punk scene.

Thoughts, comments, ideas, about #winnipeg's new slogan and logo. What you got twitter?

Someone just told me the logo reminded them of the Greendale flag from the TV show Community.

@elishadacey It's like Christmas in the middle (very beginning) of summer! 🎉

[Daniel Crump @DannyBoyCrump]

@NickIwanyshyn Oh… that's bizarre 🤔 Can't help you with that one, sorry.

@kentonlarsen @TheOnion Those modes of insertion are already trademarked by Mastercard.

@mister_mulligan @heyjezka I will reluctantly accept this difficult responsibility for the greater good of my community.

@bob_thrillin First of all, who said you shouldn't have a reuben for breakfast? That person is toxic.

Second, you should definitely have a reuben for breakfast. Enjoy your breakfast reuben!

@dhalmark Excellent repurpose! I never used to keep leftover fries, because they go soggy so quick. Then realized they make excellent hash browns when chopped up.

@LenardMonkman1 This tickles a few happy memories.

[Daniel Crump @DannyBoyCrump]

@cmarek1974 @bkives Yes, indeed.
