Eye on the dome by Harry Mardon
The 36th Manitoba Legislature's first session ended sourly as the NDP and PC members clashed over decorum and the use of the word racist. Speaker Louise Duquay insisted on parliamentary language, leading to protests by NDP Leader Gary Doer and a vote on whether to censure the Speaker. Separately, Bank of Nova Scotia filed a claim against Oscar Lathlin and others for 122645.19 tied to a motel project in The Pas.

Winnipeg pet bylaw chaos stirs city council debate
A Winnipeg City Council battle over a contentious pet bylaw draws in local figures including Wayne Bellingsam and Lawrence Anonychuk. The plan to license owners, create dog parks, and require Canine Good Citizenship faces criticism as unlicenced dogs remain common and bites persist. The piece recalls historic oddities like a three of one species bylaw in St. James and highlights the heated, sometimes vindictive tone of the debate.
