New drinking game: take a shot every time Pallister uses a hockey analogy to avoid accountability for his govt’s failed response to the pandemic #mbpoli

HOW IS ANYONE W/KIDS GETTING ANY WORK DONE ON THEIR PHDS? I’m genuinly afraid I will lose everything I’ve worked so hard for. Is your university providing mental health support for PhD students? #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #phdchat #phdadvice #pandemic

I know I won’t be staying in Manitoba. My kids are already planning on leaving too. Nice work Pallister 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #badmovebrian @BrianPallister #mbpoli

[Wanda June @Wanda_June1]

My kids are intelligently discussing the rise of white nationalism as reflectling elements of nazi fascism and it is so depressing yet i am also proud as hell of their critical thought processes #proudmom #darktimes

🙋🏼‍♂️Mom: 3rd grade; Dad: no formal education. Some serious #firstgen pride here

[Dr. Laura R. Prieto @lauraRprieto.bsky.social @Laura_R_Prieto]

Ok, fess up, everyone. Which PhDs out in #AcademicTwitter have parents without any college degrees at all? 🙋🏻‍♀️#firstgen

[Wanda June @Wanda_June1]

@cityofwinnipeg this is an embarrassment and a violation of human rights #accessibilityforall

[Wanda June @Wanda_June1]

Just a wild guess here: @cityofwinnipeg cleared the streets lastnight and this is their half-arsed “commitment” to keeping the sidewalks clear and #accessible ...

[Wanda June @Wanda_June1]

While sidewalks and crossings are impossible to navigate, especially for anyone with a mobility aid ...

[Wanda June @Wanda_June1]

@shanfurness Second that, beautiful whose work is this?

[Wanda June @Wanda_June1]

OMG YES YES YES! Alternatively, could just move to Birmingham (not sarcasm, I’d really love this in Winnipeg. And I’d totally move to Birmingham) #bikewpg #ClimateAction

[Jonathan Borland @Jon_Lloyd_B]

Interesting article on how Ghent inspired Birmingham to rethink their car centric culture. A good case study for Winnipeg? https://t.co/DR2GxFblqT

[Wanda June @Wanda_June1]

Sometimes i just get tired of trying to change winnipeg’s car culture and work on my plan to move elsewhere instead #VisionZero #bikewpg #bikelife #wpgpoli

BIG NEWS!

We’ve signed a deal to write a second book for @IslandPress.

It will argue the human case for considerably fewer automobiles in cities, by sharing our observations of “low car” Delft through the lenses of equity, well-being, and social cohesion.

Watch for it in 2021.
