It's called community pride.

Before your time, but base on my reading in the past, most or all suburban municipalities OPPOSED Centralized municipal gov't, aka known as "Unicity"...all except central City of Winnipeg proper.

Metro RulZ! Let's have a goal to de-amalgamate at least ONE suburb. How about St. B or Transcona in the next 10 yrs.?

I noticed some hash marks on the south side of the Osborne bridge. It seems as though they're thinking of painting in sharrows or even shrinking vehicular lanes to accommodate bike lanes. Would be nice.
South Osborne Bridge (OV area) was always the sticking point of WHY despite its redoing in the past few years I still didn't feel comfy enough to ride on the bike lane, because it just narrows before Roslyn Rd.

Wouldn't want to be SB on Osbore Bridge bike lane, only to be "clipped" by a WT diesel bus.

Sorry, but I'll stick to where it's SAFE...on the sidewalk of that Bridge.
