Good evening. Here’s a look at what our newsroom has been working on today:
An investigation by Manitoba’s auditor general found that the office responsible for protecting vulnerable people in care was dismissing allegations of sexual assault and physical and verbal abuse at personal-care homes as “unfounded,” saying they didn’t meet its definition of abuse. “We found the allegations were valid and were not isolated cases,” Tyson Shtykalo said in his report.
People protesting the arrest of a man who has helped lead the calls for landfill searches painted messages and left red handprints on Winnipeg police headquarters Tuesday night, raising tensions between MMIWG activists and a private security company that was hired by the City of Winnipeg to keep watch on protesters set up near the Brady Road landfill.
And: multiple homes are currently for sale in Winnipeg with asking prices over $5 million, offering features like salt-water infinity pools, golf simulators, theatres, vehicle elevators and gyms with heated floors. If they sell for list price, they’ll become the most expensive homes ever sold here, as far as the Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board has tracked.
