It’s the 150th anniversary of the #Winnipeg Free Press newspaper. Notable for many reasons including not being a part of the big media conglomerates that pump out the same content city after city.

My first job was a #WinnipegFreePress paper boy. And I’m proud of that start that gave me many foundations that served me well all my working life.

@NunavutBirder Congratulations to the Winnipeg Free Press, and particular congratulations on your independence. My newspaper is only 11 years old, but hopes to follow its lead.
