This week, we let you hear for yourself how radical climate activists tried to entrench even more influence inside City Hall under the guise of "budget consultation". Then, Marty explains how their subversive anti-car agenda is exposed in the rigged 'Moving on Marion' bike lane process we investigated in our YouTube video series. The mainstream media leapt to defend far-left special interest lobbyists like Marianne Cerilli and assailed Coun. Jeff Browaty for daring to reply to her

This week an overview of the growing Moving on Marion bike lane controversy, after we went back to the streets of St. Boniface to continue our investigation. Marty Gold explains: What is Moving on Marion and why should I care? The Basics: Bike paths and concrete bumpouts all along Marion and Goulet will cut Route 115 down to 2 lanes each. This will result in a loss of 99 parking spaces from Traverse (for a bike lane that isn't in the 'official' Active Transportation plan), and from

The more we asked the businesses in St. Boniface about the 'Moving on Marion' roadway changes planned for outside their front doors, the worse it got.

He describes the mix of enterprises on just one block between Tache and Kenny, that without exception, consider the city plan as a deadly risk to their success. And we

Provincial budget coverage ain't what it used to be: Tom Brodbeck's column in the Free Press was full of funny backtracks compared to his pre-budget burial of the 'Hail Mary' playbook of the PC government. Is he a comedian? "It's unlikely she'll find a receptive audience" for "a decent budget" that increases key spending -and puts money back in Manitoban's wallets? What about the 'buffoonery' he predicted in his Feb. 27 column? 10:15 With leader Dougald Lamont trying to horn in on NDP turf, the
