  • Winnipeg is probably just as bad as Edmonton for lack of alternatives to owning a car.

    I bought a robust e-bike late last summer, with the intention of riding it year-round. Then we got hit with a few storms and I realized city hall doesn’t give a shit about clearing road shoulders for me to able to use them. Never mind the absolutely unridable sidewalks with mushy frozen ruts that have caused more than a few falls, one snapping my rear brake handle (thanks climate change).

    I gave up and have had to revert back to our astronomically shitty bus service or walking – which is difficult because of multiple surgeries on my knee, ankle and shoulder.
