Highway Robbery in Water Billing: Winnipeg’s $150K Charge @NHLJets @winnipeg Martin of Charleswood discovered his elderly mother, Dorothy, had a $150,000 water bill from Winnipeg’s water department. An email revealed the massive overdraft. Initially thinking it was a scam, Tim found the charge was real and had it reversed. This incident highlights serious concerns about inflated water bills and the accuracy of automated billing systems, even in cities like Winnipeg with ample water resources.

A family member was recently a victim of a hit and run on her parked car. We know there is evidence that is easy to get, but MPI is refusing to work with us.

A police report was filed, there were eye witnesses, the suspect visited a weed store, got carded there, bought weed, and then performed the hit and run in full view of their camera system with their plate fully visible. The weed store knows who it is.

However, MPI is showing little interest in actually investigating, and this means the victim will have to pay the $200 deductible for something that wasn't their fault and is easily solvable. They keep pressuring MPI at every call that there is evidence and they just have to go get it (as I actually walked into the weed store to ask questions and asked them to keep aside the video evidence, one of their employees was also hit), but so far they have done nothing.

Does anyone know of a process that would push MPI to actually investigate such a thing? TIA

The city plans to forgo transferring more than $15 million from its general revenue into the reserve fund as a way to cut down the deficit. It will also use debt deferral, interest savings and expenditure management to further reduce the shortfall.

The plan does not call for service reductions or staff cuts.
