Here's to a better world through laughter and learning!

I had to start a Twitter for a class and never got good at it.

[Sustainable Building Manitoba @SustBldgMB]

Last day of 3 week consultation on energy efficient building codes & not a word on it from @mbndp or @MBLiberalParty

Do they agree with PCs to default to Tier 1 & squander this opportunity to reduce GHG, develop the economy & save Manitobans money?

Why not speak up?

The Manitoba government is proposing a concerning decision that will change the future of energy efficiency in Manitoba. Find out more and take action now - https://t.co/kzJqWx94z5

Building codes shape the future of construction in Manitoba.

Sustainable Building Manitoba is recommending that Manitoba adopt:
🏠 Tier 3 for Part 9.36 of the NBC (residential)
🏢 Tier 1 advancing to Tier 2 in 2024 for the NECB (commercial)

Hey @cityofwinnipeg I saw some people scraping the sidewalks in front of their houses, how do I report them for bylaw violations?

Ross cherry-picks information and presents it without context to make his case. We do agree on one point: people should read Bill 36 and make up their own mind. Our summary: https://t.co/MuXPdhU8Cw or for the brave, you can read the bill itself at https://t.co/QQWFqPiiSb 🧵

If the Feds can immediately adopt and implement the 2020 codes why can't we?

Right now, federally-funded projects in MB must use the 2020 codes whereas all other projects will be be required to adhere to the 2015/17 codes, as of Nov 1.

Does that make sense to you?

[Sustainable Building Manitoba @SustBldgMB]

The Manitoba Government is currently seeking input on the adoption of Building Codes.

We can think of 7 solid reasons they should go straight to 2020 codes.

What are your thoughts?

Very concerned to hear that @hsc_winnipeg ER is so short nurses that paramedics are being called on to staff the emergency room.

Nurses warned of the growing staffing crisis. This news makes clear system capacity is exhausted.

Premier @HStefansonMB what’s the plan?? #mbpoli

[Communities Not Cuts @CNC_Manitoba]

Guess what? There is a Bill in the Legislature RIGHT NOW that seeks to undermine Manitoba's Public Utilities Board.

As if the Manitoba Government was not up to enough shenanigans, now they've got a Bill to mess with the Public Utilities Board (PUB)

The PUB is THE independent BODY with oversight over public utilities like Hydro

What have you heard about building codes in Manitoba?
Maybe that 2020 codes are out now & we're a cycle behind?

What are the code updates?

With MB's 2022 budget out, we remind everyone that MB is dead last in Canada in keeping up with the National Model Codes. Our building code is still based on 2011's model code.

We hoped that today's budget would show a strong commitment to update the code. 🧵 #mbpoli

[Manitoba Parkz @MBGovParkz]

[Laura-cameron.bsky.social @laurapcameron]

What gives you hope to fight for a better future, & what does that future look like?

I explored these questions in The Dream House, a short doc that I made with activists @kakeka_ @H_Muhajarine Mandalyn Unger & Brenden Gali that's out today on CBC 👉 https://t.co/MiLzn4vaY4

[Laura Ty @LauRa_Ty]

I am pretty uncomfortable with things opening up so much while the hospitals are still so full

[Manitoba Health Coalition @MBHealthCoal]

While @mbgov is removing mask & vaccine mandates, we can still do our part. It's okay to be cautious. It's okay to protect each other. It's okay to say so loud and proud.
I'll do my part.
I'll wear a mask.
