The City of Winnipeg plans to change almost every transit route in the city in June 2025, during a major overhaul of the transit service.

All told, there will be 142 changes to bus routes in the city during a switch to a “spine-feeder model.”

Instead of every bus in the city ending up downtown, there will be a network of major routes and less frequently served feeder routes that bring passengers to the main bus routes.

A city report included maps of each of the new proposed bus routes. View them below.

If you’d like to zoom in even closer on the route maps — or see an overview of the total network and proposed service levels — detailed maps are available in PDF format (note: the files are quite large):

The routes are broken into several service classifications, depending on how often buses run and how the route is designed to serve Winnipeggers. (City of Winnipeg)

Former Gilbert Plains CAO forged doc’s note to get out of court: RCMP

Erik Pindera 4 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 4:10 PM CDT

A former rural municipal official awaiting sentencing for stealing more than $500,000 from community coffers has been accused of forging a fake doctor’s note to get out of attending court.

Amber Fisher, the former chief administrative officer for the Rural Municipality of Gilbert Plains, pleaded guilty to one count of theft over $5,000 last year.

Dauphin RCMP say investigators learned Fisher, 42, had submitted the note indicating she would be unable to attend court for her Sept. 2 sentencing, after she was seriously injured in a vehicle collision on July 22.

Fisher’s lawyer submitted the note to the court and the judge adjourned her sentencing to a later date.

Grant Cockshott is looking to China, India and his own backyard. Anywhere but the United States.

“We are most definitely at an inflection point for Manitoba-based manufacturers,” said Cockshott, the president of Innovair Group.

His company sells a range of products — industrial gases, robotic welding and material handling systems. It’s taking on new projects and changing operations as a Canada-United States trade dispute continues.

So are Manitoba firetruck, sheet metal, aerospace and truck outfitting manufacturers. Company representatives gathered at Fort Garry Fire Trucks’ facility on Bergen Cutoff Road on Thursday as the federal government announced $15.9 million for 15 local projects.

Tanner Cadwallader was trying to simplify a process that is anything but simple.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers special-teams ace found himself in the spotlight this week after his blocked punt played a pivotal role in a 44-28 victory over the Montreal Alouettes.

“It’s something you’ve got to be eyes wide open on,” said Cadwallader, whose Bombers face the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the Labour Day Classic on Sunday in Regina.

“You really want to take the ball off the punter’s foot. You don’t want to be reaching for it when it’s in flight or anything like that. It’s just hitting your target. Knowing where your target is, knowing where that foot is going to be and then going out and finding it and trying to be on time.”

Class delayed a day after mould found in Tyndall Park school

Maggie Macintosh 6 minute read Yesterday at 7:31 PM CDT

The first day of school has been postponed at École Stanley Knowles School after teachers discovered mould on chairs, rugs and other items when they were setting up their classrooms.

Families were alerted Thursday afternoon that an “HVAC malfunction” required extensive cleanup and, as a result, a one-day delay to the new year.

“I called it a couple weeks ago — it smelled really strong of mould,” said Amanda Bell, a mother who’s gone to the building regularly all summer to drop off and pick up her children from the on-site daycare.

Bell recalled she and her partner got a whiff of “wet mould” in a first-floor hallway near the library in mid-August and flagged it to an employee who told them they’d contact a custodian.

Minister tight-lipped about prosecutors’ grievance, but chatty about who’s to blame

Carol Sanders 4 minute read Yesterday at 6:32 PM CDT

The justice minister said Thursday he can’t discuss an arbitration case in which Crown attorneys blasted the government for trying to keep a report on excessive workload out of an upcoming grievance hearing.

Matt Wiebe wouldn’t say whether Manitoba’s justice system needs more Crown prosecutors, but agreed to discuss who he said is to blame for the Crown attorneys’ grievance.

The NDP minister noted the complaint was made by the Manitoba Association of Crown Attorneys in 2023 when the Progressive Conservatives were in power.

The PCs “had not even acknowledged or begun the process of sitting down with the Crown attorneys to begin to deal with that grievance,” Wiebe said Thursday.

‘Where are they going to go?’: encampment policy blamed for homeless people sleeping outside thrift store

Scott Billeck 5 minute read Wednesday, Sep. 2, 2026

The owner of a Portage Avenue thrift shop says the city’s encampment ban has pushed dozens of homeless people from tent communities to spaces near her store.

Susan Lockhart, who runs Just Like New to You at 635 Portage Ave., says anywhere from 25 to 50 people can be found at any given time behind the store and along the back lane stretching between Sherbrook and Furby streets.

“Where are they going to go?” she said Wednesday from her shop. “I was just here on the weekend and I couldn’t get to our back door. There were people everywhere. Mattresses.”

Earlier this week, the city reported 275 people were known to be living in 72 encampments across Winnipeg — down from 100 encampments housing about 700 people last September. The report also noted that 141 sites have been remediated since the city’s encampment policy came into effect in November.
