Easing the transition: Newcomer fair helps people find community, belonging

Zoe Pierce 5 minute read Yesterday at 5:57 PM CDT

Under a hot Saturday sun at Freight House Field in Winnipeg’s Centennial neighbourhood, children bounced on inflatable castles, families lined up for food, and the sounds of cultural performances carried through the crowd as newcomers to Winnipeg gathered for an annual celebration.

“We’re all trying to build a relationship together.”

That was the message from Clayton Sandy on Saturday at Winnipeg’s Newcomer Welcome Fair, where he shared Indigenous teachings and helping newcomers better understand the history of the land they now call home.

Hosted by Immigration Partnership Winnipeg and community partners, the fair, now in its 10th year, brought together more than 30 settlement organizations, employers and community groups to help newcomers access services, explore job opportunities and connect with their new community.

MORGAN MODJESKI / FREE PRESS Officers with the Winnipeg Police Service survey a crumbled white BMW on Main Street on Friday, July 17, 2026. Video captured of the crash indicates that speed may have been a factor in the incident, as two vehicles involved, a motorcycle and the BMW, were travelling at a high rate of speed southbound on Main Street before the collision.

Main Street crash involving motorcycle linked to speeding

Morgan Modjeski 3 minute read Friday, Jul. 17, 2026

Speed appears to be a factor in a serious four-vehicle collision, including a motorcycle, on Main Street Friday.

Police did not immediately release information about the crash, but at around 7 p.m., a large section of Main Street was taped off between Jarvis and Dufferin Avenue. Traffic was redirected and pedestrians were told to stay clear.

Behind the tape, a crumpled white sedan was smashed into the side of a building, and a damaged motorcycle was on its side in the middle of the street. Two SUVs were also damaged.

The Free Press watched video captured from cameras at the nearby Northern Hotel that shows the two vehicles involved in the crash — the motorcycle that had a rider and a passenger, and the white sedan — speeding side-by-side southbound on Main Street. The speed limit in the area is 50 kilometres per hour.
