Winnipeg councillor hires private security for community consultation.

Threats directed toward government officials have been on the rise, prompting one Winnipeg city councillor to hire private security to attend a recent community event.

Coun. Janice Lukes hosted a Tea and Talking gathering at Chai Mehfil last Thursday, and there were two members of a security detail on hand after hearing rumblings of a protest about Winnipeg Transit.

“I just felt for the safety of the people coming to my community consultation, for the safety of the tea house and for my staff that maybe I should just have a couple security people there,” Lukes told the news.

Winnipeg Transit reported a drop in ridership, falling from 95% of pre-pandemic levels in 2024 to 89% in 2025.

This could be because of the city's major route overhaul and suspected passenger safety concerns, which are being addressed with increased police presence.

Be prepared for big blasts of wintry weather this week in Manitoba and northwestern Ontario.

Two Alberta clippers are heading our way. The first will bring significant snowfall to northern regions, while the same is expected for southern Manitoba when the second one roars through.

Before the first system arrives in full force, Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) says a risk of freezing rain will develop in the Parkland region Monday afternoon, ahead of the clipper’s warm front.

The weather agency says the system will spread 10-20 cm of snow across the northern Prairies, with the heaviest snow falling .
