2: 500 block of Elmhurst Road.
3: Fort Richmond area around Radcliffe Road.

The vibrant pop-up toilet has been a success amongst Winnipeg’s downtown patrons. From ⁦@DowntownWpgBIZ⁩ and ⁦@SiloamMission⁩ survey results it seems like Winnipeggers want the pop-up toilet to become a permanent fixture in downtown. #wpgsun https://t.co/qrmb5vd8JD

It’s not everyday when ⁦@wpgpolice⁩ make an arrest right outside my front door. Sometimes the stories find you as the saying goes. Thankfully both the officer and the suspect were unharmed in the incident. #MakingMyJobEasy #WinnipegSun https://t.co/HTYBMYKxL6
