SUMMARY:Ride free with Winnipeg Transit on New Year’s Eve
DESCRIPTION:MPI has sponsored the Free Ride Program since 2011 \n  \nGet home safely on New Year’s Eve with Winnipeg Transit. \n  \nThe City of Winnipeg and Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI) have teamed up again to offer the Free Ride Program. All Regular and Transit Plus service is free on Wednesday\, December 31\, from 7 p.m. until the end of service. \n  \nThe last buses will leave downtown at approximately 1:30 a.m. Remember to plan your trip using Navigo. It is available on our website and through the Winnipeg Transit app. \n  \n  \nWith recent schedule updates\, we’re reminding our passengers On-Request service will run until approximately 2 a.m. in 10 zones on New Year’s Eve. Passengers who wish to use On-Request are advised to request their trips at least 20 minutes before the end of service. \n  \nIn 2025\, 13 people have been killed on Manitoba’s roadways due to impaired driving. This year\, 2\,162 drivers have been found to be driving impaired\, putting their lives and the lives of everyone on the road at risk. \n  \nNew Year’s Eve is a time of celebration and looking forward to all the good that is to come in the new year \n  \nManitoba continues to have among the toughest penalties in Canada for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. \n  \nDriving impaired by either drugs or alcohol comes with severe consequences. This can include an impounded vehicle\, suspended license\, mandatory ignition lock\, large fines\, increased premiums\, and\, in some cases\, criminal charges

SUMMARY:The Hersh and Arna Shefrin Dialogues on Peace and Conflict Resolution
DESCRIPTION:Arthur V. Mauro Institute for Peace & Justice at St. Paul’s College \n  \nThe Mauro Institute is very pleased to be offering the first two events in a new series – The Hersh and Arna Shefrin Dialogues on Peace and Conflict Resolution. \n  \n[ALSO: Save the Date – the 2025 Sol Kanee Lecture on Peace and Justice is Monday\, November 3\, 7:00 pm at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights] \n  \nThe Hersh and Arna Shefrin Dialogues on Peace and Conflict Resolution are generously supported by a gift from Dr. Hersh [BSc(Hons)/70] and Arna Shefrin [DipDHyg/70; BA/71].

The dialogues are both in-person and available to be streamed on the Mauro Institute’s YouTube channel. \n  \n  \nDialogue #1 – Wednesday\, September 17 | 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm | Hanley Hall (Room 220) St. Paul’s College (reception to follow) \nThe Hersh and Arna Shefrin Dialogues on Peace and Conflict Resolution \nResisting the Perceived Limits of Dialogue \n  \nMiddle powers such as Canada depend on the power of dialogue to create institutions and agreements with dispute settlement mechanisms designed to level the playing field with big powers. The post-war architecture of multilateralism that depended on American leadership and involvement and the willingness to underwrite the global operating system is fractured with President Donald Trump’s premise to “make America great again”. This presentation by former Canadian diplomat\, Colin Robertson and roundtable discussion will consider if it can be put back together or how it should change\, and what forms of dialogue that would entail. \nPanelists will include Dr. Ursula Lehmkuhl and Dr. Manuel Fröhlich of Trier University\, and Dr. James Fergusson and Dr. Stephan Jaeger of the University of Manitoba. The roundtable discussion will be moderated by Dr. Andrea Charron\, Director\, Centre for Defence and Security Studies\, and Professor\, International Relations University of Manitoba \nReserve your free tickets to the lecture 7:00 pm\, in-person at St. Paul’s College \nLivestream on the Mauro Institute YouTube channel. \n  \n  \nDialogue #2 – Thursday\, September 25 | 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm | Fr. Jensen SJ Theatre (Room 100) St. Paul’s College \nThe Hersh and Arna Shefrin Dialogues on Peace and Conflict Resolution \nLeading With Compassion Amid Conflict and Violence \n  \nDeep human connection and providing service from a place of compassion is increasingly difficult in our complex and polarizing world. In our quest for peace and justice\, is compassion simply a pollyannish illusion? Come\, hear\, and have a conversation with our panelists who have strived to bring compassion into their work in different ways. Hear their challenges and triumphs as they dared to lead with compassion in times of conflict and violence. \nPanelists will include Dr. Bob Chrismas\, Team Lead\, Winnipeg Community Safety Team\, Dr. Shauna Labman\, Executive Director\, Global College and Associate Professor\, University of Winnipeg\, and Devon Clunis\, Former Chief of Police\, Winnipeg Police Service\, Author\, and International Consultant.
