In a crowded field of seven hopefuls, Zekharia Selahadin is hoping his simple grassroots approach will generate support on October 25th from voters in Elmwood- East Kildonan. Part 1- He moved to Canada from Ethiopia as a child and grew up in Elmwood, and has worked in childcare and with the Green Team. In Episode 49, Selahadin discusses the top issues he's hearing about at the doorstep- including crime and road and sidewalk conditions. He's joined the call for a replacement of the Louise Bridge. The new and far-from-improved Transit system also comes up, as "I've seen many individuals waiting for a bus and it's full and people are squished inside it. I've seen the frustration first-hand." It's affected his own family members getting to and from work at night and he worries about their safety, especially with the longer walks now required. Marty Gold asks him if the management of Winnipeg Transit needs to be hauled on the carpet.25.45 Part 2- Selahadin agrees "it's important to have a car" in Winnipeg but wants residential speed limits reduced to 30k and more bike lanes. 37.25- Crime and disorder from homeless encampments are impacting the ward. Selahadin says that while "police are trying their best" supports for those who want to get housed need to be maintained. He's not sure if a centralized encampment area, like at the Legislature, would work because "a fight club" could result between rival factions placed in close proximity to each other.

The delays in repairing the Louise Bridge made Braydon Mazurkiewich decide to put his name on the ballot, and he's bringing a brash style of campaigning to the October 25th by-election in Elmwood- East Kildonan. Part 1 - He knows his way around political campaigns, but after the City of Winnipeg continually missed target dates to get the Louise Bridge open this, Braydon Mazurkiewich decided to try to succeed his late friend Jason Schreyer as councillor for Elmwood- East Kildonan. He takes credit for the flurry of work on-site to get repairs finished. We discusse his appearance at the community committee, where his call for a new bridge to be part of the next budget process was supported. Then he responds to the statements of Coun. Janice Lukes, chair of Public Works, dismissing the idea of a new bridge out of hand. "Maz" believes it's another example of people in the northeast quadrant getting the shaft while residents in southern wards like those of Lukes gets highways and recreation centres. He voices other criticism of the "elites" who he says call the shots at 510 Main Street. and "give lip service" to the needs of the EK ward. Marty Gold prompts a discussion about how difficult travel from the east side of Winnipeg going to the west is continually throttled. 14.00- Speaking to voters at the door, Maz says "it's all about the crime... we've got to clean up our city, man." He wants investment in youth programs and beat cops restored to the area as break-ins, vandalism and violence plague the businesses and residents like the seniors and veterans at the Legion Gardens - "they deserve some respect."19.57 Part 2- At City Hall, "I'm going to be the squeaky wheel." Maz says he's personally seen the brazen theft at the 7-Eleven and the stolen bike chop shops at illegal encampments on our riverbanks. "The city has dumped all their money to Main Street Project and it's not working... We have to find out who's doing a good job and support that one." 29.30 - Mazurkiewich is critical of how city neglect of the EK ward is affecting home equity by allowing the neighborhoods of "the hard working people" to slide, devaluing their homes. "This area needs some significant investment." 31.50- As for another candidate talking about being part of a "team" on council if they're elected, Maz says "the team you represent at city hall are the people that elect you in your ward so you can fight for every dollar that they deserve... I am on Team Elmwood-East Kildonan."The byelection is on October 25th. For more details on the Maz campaign, go to fightforelmwoodek.ca*****Marty Gold has been filing front page news in the Winnipeg Sun about important issues- here's the latest:- A city podcast recently described how “Inspector Helen Peters sees the glass half full for everything, particularly our downtown. Today, as a leader in downtown safety, she workshard so people can be proud of where they live.” She may be working hard, but no one is proud to live on Waterfront Drive, or in any of the districts where the theft, violence, screaming and mayhem are allowed by the authorities to carry on. For them the glass is not “half full.”Police warrants for homeless shacks on public property a new low in public safety- In July, Smith insisted the government was “on track” to have a facility opened by year's end. It was last week that she bumped the opening back to sometime before the end of the NDP's term in 2027. A week later Kinew said it was canned….They also did not reveal that a new application under Sec. 56.1 was already filed for a different SCS. And it was filed on July 4th.Why they kept this new application to replace the AHWC proposal a secret for almost two months is hard to figure, but it may have something to do with the proponents.The cat's out of the bag after Kinew plays coy about new drug site plan.Plus- Manitoba Teachers' Society needs a lesson on modern antisemitismClick here to support the Season Six funding drive

Another special interview for a long weekend, as Episode 44 brings a conversation with Carmen Prefontaine, seeking the city council seat in Elmwood-East Kildonan on October 25.8.40 Part 2 - First-time candidate Carmen Prefontaine brings over 16 years of experience as a City of Winnipeg employee, along with her current union leadership role to her campaign. She says her decision to run stems from a long-standing residency in the community and her connection with the late Coun. Jason Schreyer.She thinks city councillors "don't have the same hands-on experience with the system the processes.... I have a very in-depth knowledge of the processes that go on, especially the budget and fiscal matters." 14.20 - Prefontaine speaks about her meeting with the Firefighters union and how the city could have hired permanent staff "and save us money in the long term" insteed of paying for overtime and added Workers Compensation Board claims. "I'm very much about getting the basics right and meeting the needs that we have before doing frivolous projects and shiny new builds of things."18.30- Prefontaine discusses the Louise Bridge in her ward and compares it to the repairs and reopening of Portage and Main. "I think it's odd that there was a plebiscite on that issue... I don't know why it was done and not adhered to."For her family, the new Transit schedules and routes are "very challenging" despite being close to Henderson Hwy, 29.34 Part 3 - What made Prefontaine decide to run? "It's always kind of been in the back of my mind," citing her work on other campaigns and seriovnmg on various boards. Hear her views of crime in the ward, community policing, support for housing, and homeless encampments- "I know people downtown feel afraid."As for the installation of $300,000 gym equipment in Juba Park being an example of vanity project spending, Prefontaine says, "I will actually agree with you on that."50.00- Prefontaine is on leave from her role as a vice-president of the Canadian Union of Public Employees. CUPE has become involved in a lot of politcal advocacy outisde of the workplace, including the Middle East. Hear her explain why she feels "there's no antisemitism occurring" within CUPE and why she is not an anti-Zionist.

Carrying on our tradition of covering civic elections, Episode 40 is an interview with Abel Gutierrez, one of the hopefuls looking to succeed the late Jason Schreyer as the representative of Elmwood- East Kildonan.4.40 Part 2- Born in northeastern Mexico, Abel Gutierrezcame to Canada when he was 3 years old and grew up in North Kildonan. As an adult he chose to raise a family in Elmwood and build a career as a construction project manager. He says he's running to show “my deep appreciation for the working class families in this ward,” many of whom he's met through his volunteering with the East Side Eagles football club.  Included in his resume is a brief time working for the City Of Winnipeg with the traffic signals control centre project. “There is definitely some things to overcome when itcomes to our city services,” such as road construction contracts, says Gutierrez. “If we're not taking opportunities on the weekends we need to do something about that,” suggesting evening shifts instead of work sites becoming “ghost towns.”16.20- Getting the Louise Bridge reopened is a priorityfor Gutierrez. “That artery is crucial especially when it comes to emergency services,” he says, and he disagrees with Mayor Gillingham spending tax dollars on reopening Portage and Main to pedestrians this year instead of maintaining the bridge. 23.15 Part 3- While door-knocking so far, Gutierrez has heard from residents who worry about vacant and derelict commercial buildings and homes. His solution: “why don't' we just knock them down? Anempty lot looks better than a derelict building there.” He believes rehabilitating those buildings would be too costly and that developers would “love to have one of those lots and turn it into something beautiful.”29.00 - Regarding the veteran's housing provided on Talbot Avenue at Legion Gardens, Gutierrez tells how he lives close by but “was unaware of the crisis that they've faced” with repair and maintenance costs- including expensive city water and waste requirements.“When it comes to a veterans housing program running outof a lower income constituency, we need to work with those organizations. That's it, bottom line.”34.00 - Elmwood has problems caused by crime and homeless encampments that isn't well publicized - and Gutierrez says Coun. Jeff Browaty has the right idea about removing encampments from major routes. Having grown up in Manitoba Housing, he was shocked to learn that some of the criminals stay in encampments actually have subsidized housing units. He says that's denying honest families their chance at a step up. 41.05- Gutierrez does not support the exclusive contract the Gillingham administration awarded to Main Street Project for mobile services to deal with the homeless. "I think we need to diversify our approach in this... I don't know when the last time you had a chance to drive by the Main Street Project, but it's not good. If that's what we're funding, I have to avoid that area when I bring a client to the city." “I don't like the image we portray as a gritty city,” Gutierrez asserts. “We need to take pride. We need to clean up our back yard.”  He believes his workaholic nature will enhance hisability to work with the community, and if elected on October 25th, “I'm gonna roll up my sleeves for you at City Hall.” 50.05 Part 4- Marty Gold wraps up the episode with a pitch to support the Season Six funding drive, now at $2650.

Send us a textIn this episode, we sit down with Dan Forster, an award-winning lettering artist and designer with over 25 years of experience. Dan has crafted stunning custom lettering for brands, agencies, and clients worldwide, but his journey into the world of type wasn't a straight path—it was shaped by frustration, perseverance, and an unexpected return to his roots.Dan shares the story of his late father, a renowned lettering artist, and how clearing out his dad's studio after his passing led to a creative revelation. We talk about his early struggles with drawing letters, his detour into graphic design, and the moment he realized that lettering was his true calling.We also dive into:✔️ The painstaking process behind mastering letterforms (and why drawing a single Helvetica “a” for hours was a turning point).✔️ His time at top agencies like Elmwood and the leap into freelancing.✔️ The evolution of lettering in branding and why some iconic wordmarks, like Kahlúa, needed a refresh.✔️ How he approaches complex lettering projects—including a 30-day masterpiece that landed in Communication Arts.✔️ The importance of showing process work to clients and why observing letterforms is just as crucial as drawing them.✔️ The push-and-pull between modern digital tools and the lost art of hand-lettering.We wrap things up with a discussion on the blandification of branding (looking at you, Johnson & Johnson) and the challenge of preserving craft in a world moving toward simplicity.

Although not usually thought of as a state steeped in UFO history, Wisconsin lays claim to some of the most influential and important names in the field, dating back to the beginnings of the study itself. From the founding of the oldest and largest civilian research organizations in the world, to 3 different towns claiming to be the "UFO Capitol of the World," to some of the strangest reported sightings in our nation's history, Wisconsin certainly has left, and continues to leave, an indelible mark in UFO lore. Scott and Mickey discuss Wisconsin's place in UFOlogy, and review some of the claims that have baffled experts for decades...
