We can’t thank everyone enough who supported our Bringing Housing Home event last night. We had a great turn out in-person and on-line! You can already watch the recording on YouTube.
We want to send out a huge round of thank yous to:
- Brian Pincott of the Westminster Housing Society for the amazing presentation and for being such a sensational moderator for the panel.
- Michel Durand-Wood of Dear Winnipeg for the detailed presentation and such thoughtful and informative answers on the panel.
- Tyler Crichton of YIMBY Winnipeg for being such a gracious host and for the great intro to YIMBY and Infill presentation.
- Mel Marginet of the Green Action Centre for the well-rounded responses and information shared on the panel.
- Richard Mahé of the City of Winnipeg for the extremely important civic context and astute answers on the paenl.
- Kathryn Davies of More Neighbours Calgary for joining from Calgary and sharing such valuable knowledge and experience of the Calgary public hearings.
- Phase Five Productions for the absolutely amazing live-stream and impressive production quality of the event.
- Everyone who came out in person or online and asked passionate and thoughtful questions!
- The impressive crew of YIMBY Winnipeg volunteers. We couldn’t do it without you!
- The staff at Sergeant Tommy Prince Place for being so hospitable.
We are hopeful to be able to put on more events in the new year to continue to engage with the community! We also want to prepare for the upcoming hard work ahead to finalize the new 4 unit by-laws. We need more Winnipeggers who are enthusiastic for change and willing to volunteer their time to help get the word out.
