Our lead story: just days after an alleged altercation between a lone First Nations man and as many as five Winnipeg Police Service officers, the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs hire a law firm to look into systemic racism within the force.  

An update of our recent podcasts and Winnipeg Sun stories and a Crime and Public Safety round-up makes Episode 20 essential listening for the civic-minded of our city. Part 1- Marty discusses his column about a West End man who had enough with shoplifters at his local 7-eleven in Metis Batman Saves Day, and his report about homeless encampments briefly appearing in Happyland Park. In addition, there's a follow-up to our interview with St. Vital Coun. Brian Mayes who has now scheduled a town hall for Sept. 23. You'll also hear a brief overview of misinformation being spread by Plan20-50 defenders in local media, and the criticism of Winnipeg Free Press over their coverage of the death of AMC Grand Chief Cathy Merrick. Both issues will get a more detailed analysis in the next week. ******** Support our Season 5 Funding Drive - now over 50% raised with $2600 to go! We accept no government funding.

WFP Sept. 3: "Chambers said Smyth fulfilled his mandate to reduce police overtime."  WFP Sept. 9: Chambers said “At a police level, you have to look adding more officers to the complement to reduce the amount of overtime,” after "the Winnipeg Police Service expects to exceed its overtime budget by $2.3 million by the end of this year..." Which was it? Was Coun. Chambers misled before Smyth took his pension and left? While social justice warriors proclaim policing doesn't reduce crime, the fact is taking criminals out of circulation does do exactly that. As to the reasons for increased OT being required, Smyth's mishandling of protest marches by inflammatory radical activists is never mentioned by MSM. 28.45- A rally decrying repeated violent incidents shattering the lives of newcomers is planned for Sept. 18th. Ukrainian refugees have had enough and we have the details. 30.30 - Sometimes threats to public safety are rooted in poor City practices. - Transcona homeowners still don't have answers about why a house blew up in June taking out the neighbouring home. They also don't understand why the City tolerates scavengers scaling the fences and picking through the rubble. We first covered that issue in City Keeps 911 Audio From Suicide Victim's Family, after a burned-out home in November 2022 was allowed to be pillaged. - Excuses galore are being made as the boondoggle of Centre Village on Balmoral Street is finally being demolished. Neither U of Winnipeg professor Jino Distasio or Coun. Sherri Rollins wanted to admit to the media what the problem was- the project was a vanity project for the architects. The "award-winning" design guaranteed ghetto conditions would prevail- and as we pointed out in Episode 27, while the neighborhood suffered from the blight after it was condemned, the City looked the other way instead of ticketing Manitoba Housing officials. - A listener raised another failure of city officials to ward off crime and disorder- piles of bricks are left in the open, an inviting freebie for vandals to use. ***** Here's what your support will bring in September: How Metro tried to rig the Plan20-50 process; City councilor interviews; and A special report about homeless encampments THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO THE PODCASTS AND READING OUR COLUMNS AND NEWS REPORTS IN THE WINNIPEG SUN!

The final episode of 2023 - and Season 3 - ties together our coverage of the explosion during the year of ultra-violent crime that leaves a trail of injuries, death and anguish at the hands of remorseless teenagers. "We've seen that more and more often during incidents this year," said said Winnipeg Police Service spokesman Const. Claude Chancy. "It's definitely something we are concerned about.” With three 14 year olds, two 15 year olds, and a 16 year old to face charges in the murder of 27 year old Peter Filip outside a Logan Avenue beer vendor on Remembrance Day, his mother showed no hesitation in putting blame where it belonged: “Parents have to be responsible for that, and who are the parents?” she said. It was shocking the media reported it, daring to air a view that didn't blame "colonialism", "capitalism" "root causes" or other far-fetched explanations for why 6 kids were roaming the streets looking for victims at 2 AM. Marty Gold explains the trail of one death, 4 assaults, a sawed-off shotgun, and a barely-failed carjacking that proves soft-on-criminals legislation needs to be abolished. When will it be replaced with true deterrence and protection of the public from the outbursts of psychopathic teenagers.

His accused killer, like the accused in another recent homicide, continued to rack up charges in the year after convictions for violent crimes but were not locked up. And they weren't the only ones exhibiting the catch-and-release pattern. Before carjacker Ricardo Gomes fired a shot at a driver on Corydon who resisted, he also had priors. The drug addict was convicted of almost choking out a cop in front of her son, biting another and then got into it with a third. He skipped court. He had insisted to Judge Don Slough “I don't want to be one of those people who are coming in and out of jail all my life.” But that's what he's become. - The bizarre hostage-taking of four in West Broadway ended with police shooting a 52 year old man. He was a suspect in the death of a BC trucker who was found in the Manitoba Housing building at 25 Furby after going missing. The mystery started with the truck of Farah Mohamud being found on the parking lot of the Sherbrook Hotel 2 blocks away- where. listeners are reminded, the Langside mass murder case in November also had a connection. - Marty explains, the system is falling apart, and does the math of how the 40+ homicide cases with so many defendants can result in more court trials than Wab Kinew's justice department can manage. He ran on the premise of being tough on crime- but his commitment may be overtaken by demands from his far-left hug-a-thug cabinet and a strained budget. In 2024, TGCTS will continue to be a voice for victims of crime, the community looking over their shoulders, and survivors deserving justice.

What is black and white and very, very classy all over? How about the Winnipeg Art Gallery's new exhibit to mark the 15oth anniversary of the Winnipeg Free Press?In this week's episode, we talk to Riva Symko, the WAG's head of collections and exhibitions and curator of Headlines: The Art of the News Cycle, which has just recently opened to the public.In a feature interview, Symko reveals the nearly three years of thinking and planning that went into an art installation inspired by the newspaper's 15oth anniversary. And, how she has accumulated one of the world's largest personal collections of clothing inspired by newspapers. Not kidding.Also this week: Lett and Sinclair discuss more developments in the saga of the police investigation into an alleged serial killer who preyed on Indigenous women, and the reluctance of Winnipeg Police Service to search landfills that may contain the remains of the victims.Finally, Free Press Perspectives Editor Brad Oswald provides us with another edition of The Storytellers, in which he relates his experience travelling to Rome and inadvertently discovering what could be a new Eritrean national anthem.

Episode 15 is a rambling session with Marty and Spirited Kenny that kicks off with Bomber talk! And not just the close game, but the Labour Day Classic telecast. Marty compares it to the great sportscasters he knew and emulated as a teenager and says fans deserve better from the TSN broadcast booth. 7:30 - The details the media miss: The Promenade Cafe closing... where? We noted issues coming up in this campaign that we pioneered reporting on locally in the past... for instance: 12:50 - Our old favorite, "Where was the public consultation?" The developer in River Park South missed that step. We wonder how it even got onto a Community Committee agenda. Like, how? 18:49 - A few fun facts about St. James contender Kelly Ryback, including a remarkable AWA wrestling connection which also connected to Marty. On a serious note, Ryback also took the time to give a very smart and straightforward answer to Marty's questions about another beat we covered, used needles on our streets. He clearly pays attention. The WRHA might not be too happy with at his answer, but we were. Kenny has some good points from his time at the Downtown Watch. Part 2 28:50 - A personal message from Marty: Please read his analysis of the Laith Marouf funding scandal in the Heritage Dept., Trudeau Gov't Hired Jew-Hater To Train Media In “Anti-Racism”. He goes over the ugly details and says that acceptance of antisemitism within governments and institutions is an alarm bell everyone must heed. 39:19 - There was a rash of new stories about a rash of bike thefts. Even Rick Shone got ripped off. One victim said nothing is safe anymore in Old St.Vital if it isn't nailed down, and a bike retailer said the only way to keep a bike safe is to lock it up- INDOORS. We discuss how crime has been normalized in this city and why voters won't tolerate it. As the current rate, 1 out of every 7 Mayoral candidates is a victim of crime during the campaign. 45:45 - A CBC article spoke with Marty's old boss Kelly Dehn (now in Winnipeg Police Service comms), who gave some insight into police press release practices. The story turned to what candidates for Mayor have said about crime and policing, but didn't state the real reason it's on their radar - the level of random senseless violence, which has spread all over the city far beyond the north end and inner city. We run thru the various statements and ideas the candidates in the story have raised. 52:30 - Scott Gillingham wants police to revisit compiling crime data. The problem is, he won't finger police Chief Danny Smyth for not only discontinuing it but for botching the analysis of the data when it was collected. We assess the proposals of Shaun Loney, Glen Murray and a few others. Have any thus far shown leadership? We say not yet... 1:05.00 - Marty asks why no candidate has said 'I stand with victims of crime'? Bus assaults, downtown safety, bike theft - the ripple effects spread through this city. A leader has to speak to their fear and their rights BEFORE they become victims. So many teenagers charged with violent crime, who will muster the courage to ask where the adults responsible for them were? And no candidate or councilor has called out Mayor Brian Bowman, who has time to make pie-in-the-face bets about the Bomber game, but can't bring himself to speak out against the violent senseless murders this summer.

(... bad couple of weeks, actually.) After talking about what they did on Canada Day - Marty was hosting CWE wrestling in West St. Paul and Kenny was Mr. BBQ - the discussion steered towards The Forks. The 'New Day' didn't quite work out for the government-appointed Board of Directors. ******* The violence continued at Winnipeg's flagship gathering place the past week, with a stabbing here and a stabbing there and HEY! another stabbing over there in front of the Canadian Museum For Human Rights. CTV gave the bare-bones re-cap: "Winnipeg police reported an attack in the parking lot on Monday night, resulting in the assault of a father and daughter." As Marty noted, one of the two victims is a visitor from out of town. Strike 1. "A few days later, police said two men with stab wounds were found outside The Forks Market on Wednesday. A woman was also treated for minor injuries." That resulted in the arrest of 4 juveniles, all girls, the latest in a string of such arrests lately. Strike 2. Then - "A Ukrainian refugee living in Winnipeg for two weeks was the victim of a Canada Day stabbing at The Forks... they were crossing the street when they bumped into another group. They attempted to turn around and apologize, but had trouble doing so because they didn't speak the language. They then said they saw one of the men pull out bear spray... Winnipeg Police Service confirmed one man was stabbed and the other sprayed with bear mace." So the victims this week included people who live here, at least one tourist, and newly arrived refugees fleeing Russian troops? Strike 3. The kicker for those who want to lead this city is this: "The Ukrainians are unsure where they will go or what they will do now, but feel it's unsafe here." "The couple is now calling on Winnipeggers to act more quickly to help others, and for something to be done about violent crime in the city." "For me, the reason why I'm kind of upset is because it's just embarrassing to our city, you know, and the fact that it happened to these people," said Torres. Marty and Kenny talk over the emergence of public safety - and the undeniable role of gangs of violent girls - as a key issue that the Mayoral candidates in particular will have to face questions about. Then, we go thru the list of which candidates are registered so far- including 5 councilors seeking reelection - and we close the podcast by reiterating why independent media coverage is a critical tool for voters to be informed on the issues and know where the candidates stand. Better leadership in the present will bring us a brighter future. Remember, You Have the Power.

Peter Nygard is an infamous Winnipegger who used his money, and power for his own sick and twisted greed and fulfillment. He is often referred to as the Canadian Jeffery Epstein, due to his vast sexual based assaults, the fact that he had many high status friends and colleagues (ranging from former U.S. President George Bush, Actor Sean Connery, Former Prime Ministers Jean Chretein, and Brian Mulroney, world famous pop star Michael Jackson, and more), but primarily the way he used the Caribbean Islands of the Bahamas as his own personal playground for pedophilia, rape, and made his own ‘paradise' for his friends and business associates to join in. This is the longest case that we've discussed thus far on Girl, You Haven't Heard?? as his heinous acts discussed go back as early as 1979; and so it has to be a multiple episode segment. In the third and final part, we discuss everything that led up to the eventual downfall of Peter Nygard, the many lawsuits filed against him in New York -including the one filed by two of his own sons-, the F.B.I. raid on his New York and L.A. offices, his varying U.S. and Canada based charges, the complicity of the Winnipeg Police Service in nurturing this abuser, and we round out the case with my thoughts. This was a long case, with many different moving parts. I would love to hear your thoughts on what we discussed in this episode, and the other two episodes about Peter Nygard as well!

Richard Comte is an officer with the Winnipeg Police Service who initially began working for the force in 2002. In 2015, he found himself in quite a mess which he created all on his own. He and officer Andrew Tighe -Yes the same Andrew Tighe who was caught drunk driving- were responsible for investigating a sexual assault that had occurred at the Green Brier Inn which occurred in October of that same year. Richard's unethical, threatening, problematic and questionable attempts at obtaining video surveillance footage would later come under fire, and he would be the subject of a LERA (Law Enforcement Review Agency) investigation and lawsuit filed by Jonathan Singh, owner of the Green Brier Inn. In this episode we discuss the details of the incident leading up to legal action taken as well as Richard's general messiness behind the scenes throughout the process.

Sean Cassidy is a Sargent with the Winnipeg Police Service who has been working with the force for over 20 years. In the past five years, he has been hit with a slue of charges based on three different incidents for crimes from fraud to assault causing serious bodily harm and many in-between. Sean has received virtually no consequences for his actions despite the immense amounts of harm he has caused to the very community he claims to be serving. His actions continue to be justified and he continues to be praised throughout legal processes where he is supposed to be held accountable. All police officers working with the Winnipeg Police Service should be fired, and the force itself should be disarmed, defunded and abolished, but Sean should be one of the first to go. In this podcast episode, we discuss the nature of Sean's charges, as well as what happened as a result of the charges, and wrap everything up of course, with my final thoughts on the situation.

Crystal Sveinson was a 40-year-old mother and wife who was struck and killed by drunk driver Derek Harvey-Zenk (Who later legally changed his named to HarveyMordenZenk) in the early hours of Feburary 25th, 2005. At the time of the crash, Derek was a constable with the Winnipeg Police Service and was good friends with East. St. Paul police chief at the time, Harry Bakema. Derek was covered and protected by the East St. Paul police service, the Winnipeg Police Service and essentially all parties who were involved in the initial investigation. The cover-up was so immense that Derek ended up only receiving two years of house arrest for driving drunk, killing an innocent woman, and injuring another. The lack of accountability in his initial ‘prosecution' by special prosecutor and defense lawyer Marty Minuk, led to the Taman Inquiry which would eventually lead to the abolition of the East St. Paul and later lead to the creation of the Manitoban Independent Investigation Unit. In this episode we discuss the events leading up to the crash, the crash itself, the role all parties played in delaying accountability and justice for Crystal's family, as well as the results of the inquiry. We also discuss how this case proves that the Province of Manitoba and the City of Winnipeg understand what abolition is, and they understand how to carry it out swiftly as the East St. Paul police service was disbanded and abolished within years of Crystal's death following the Taman Inquiry.

Claudette Osborne was in danger. And after making several desperate phone calls to her family and a disturbing voicemail, she went missing. But this isn't the only tragedy the Osborne family has suffered...Not only are all the women in today's episode Indigenous, they are ALL related. This week's case is a stark reminder of the ongoing epidemic of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls in Canada AND the United States. It’s a race, identity and gender based genocide that cannot be ignored. A recent inquiry found that Indigenous women and girls are 12 times more likely to be murdered or to go missing than members of any other demographic group in Canada. With our podcast, we try to shed a light on these cases because they don't receive nearly enough media coverage and are extremely underrepresented and underacknowledged.

Welcome to the People's Voice Podcast. Visit us online at www.peoplesvoice.caAs the Executive Policy Committee of Winnipeg's City Council rushes to pass its 2021 budget, it's hard not to see this document as a direct rebuke to community health and a show of deadly complacency against a growing social movement to defund the police. This movement extends in two important and related directions – against the active role and behaviour of the Winnipeg Police Service, and against the ongoing and deepening depletion of funds for essential services throughout the city, while the police budget only grows.This dynamic – of overfunded security forces and underfunded communities – is too typical. Police-Free Schools Winnipeg has been talking about this for months, where Winnipeg School Division alone spends almost half a million dollars on nine armed police officers, while scrambling for substitute teachers, remote learning resources and protective equipment in a pandemic. Schools cut back on nurses, a necessity for student health, whilst investing in the appearance of safety. This is to say nothing of the direct, negative impacts of police presence on racialized, newcomer, low-income and disabled students. The Police-Free Schools Winnipeg campaign commenced from the acute reality and firsthand experience of funding shortfalls in classrooms, while police budget and presence expand with enthusiastic approval from city council.Read the article in full.

The Winnipeg Police Association told the media that they are concerned for the mental health of their members. The association requested an internal audit to gauge the morale. Did the City of Winnipeg provide a solution? Give you a reason to feel confident that our Public Safety organization is on stable ground? Or did you only see a few quotes? Kevin Klein shows you more from the press conference, provides you with some fact checks, information not covered by the media, and alternatives to address this genuine concern.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

At the top of last week's demands from organizers of the Justice 4 Black Lives rally in Winnipeg was a call for the City of Winnipeg to defund and eventually abolish the Winnipeg Police Service. The chief himself says he's open to talks of reallocating the police budget and front-line workers say they'd be happy to take that money, but would it work? And if not, what do we do with our current system that critics say is not working, especially for many Black people and other people of colour in Winnipeg?

Our journey down the Red River of Winnipeg, Manitoba continues with the trial of Raymond Cormier for second-degree murder in Tina Fontaine's case. Several recordings obtained during the Winnipeg Police Service's undercover operation are presented to the jury along with circumstantial evidence like Raymond's connection to the duvet cover wrapped around Tina's body.

He was appointed police chaplain in 1998 and has provided support to his members in that capacity, as well as providing support to members of New York City Police Department in the aftermath of the attack on the World Trade Center. The Winnipeg Police Service formally recognized his excellence in policing and community work by awarding him the James Toal Award of Excellence in 2002. Chief Clunis was promoted to Patrol Sergeant in 2002, Sergeant in 2004, Inspector in 2007, Superintendent in 2010, and appointed Chief of Police October 2012.

Devon is married to his wife Pearlene and has two daughters Taylene and Atira. Early in the episode Chief Clunis gave his thoughts on having an informed community, "I think it’s important we educate the public, that we have a very informed public. Regarding police practices, procedures and why maybe we can’t tell you. I think when we have a public that is more informed, more engaged; when we have to make those difficult decisions, they will understand." Later the Chief had this to say about being good to each other, "A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle."
