On Tuesday, Winnipeg Trails will be presenting your petition and wants your help. If you support creating a network of safe health streets, JOIN US!
HOW:
Email cityclerks@winnipeg.ca
Tell them you would like to speak to Public Works on June 20 about expanding open streets.
Then join the Zoom meeting from home and have your say when it is your turn.
The momentum is real. People care. This is a chance to send a message and make it count. The response to our petition has been overwhelming, thanks to you. We passed 7500 signatures today when we only expected to get a few hundred. For every 10 who signs, we know there is a hundred who would agree.
In the past week alone, we have talked to CTV, CBC (French and English), Global, the Free Press, CJOB, college radio and more! Our petition is being held up as an example around the world on social media of what people need to do if they want better cities post pandemic and aren't getting them. Numerous Councillors have stepped up to defend the open streets we have and are speaking out on the need for more.
So come say a few words as a delegate. You have up to 10min to speak, and even if you only have a few words to share, it can make a big difference. We suggest sharing what these streets have meant to you and talk about the challenges you face. But tell your truth.
Meanwhile, keep sharing and liking the petition on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
Its working. People don't click on petitions unless they really care. But they clearly do.
