I’ll be giving the lunchtime lecture for @UWGeography a week from today. If you want to know what I’ve been up to since I left Winnipeg in 2018, then come on down! It’s free and food will be served! The talk might even be good too. We’ll see.

Winnipeg is effectively bankrupt because of suburban sprawl. Our new mayor @ScottGillingham must invest in walking, biking and transit, not more roads we can't afford. winnipegfreepress.com/featur… via @WinnipegNews
Best wishes to you and your family. We look forward to your return visits.
Before I take on a new role at UVIC next week, I wanted to thank and acknowledge all the amazing colleagues and friends in #Manitoba and #Winnipeg. It has been a wonderful number of years!
