Decolonizing Public Places
Reclaiming meeting spaces through acts of resistance and resurgence; The City Project, Book 3
Alex Judge
Lavoie explores the history of Indigenous resistance within Winnipeg since Idle No More in 2012 and how that protest played a pivotal role in the Indigenous cultural resurgence of reclaiming space within the city. As public space is reclaimed, Lavoie discovers how this newfound inclusion is shaping relationships within Indigenous communities, as well as how this movement connects Indigenous nations with their co-existing treaty partners.

Portage and Main
How an iconic intersection shaped Winnipeg’s history, politics, and urban life
Sabrina Janke, Alex Judge
Winnipeg’s Portage and Main has always been far more than an intersection, and this book explores stories from throughout the city’s history, including how it was closed to pedestrians 50 years ago, and all the efforts made to open it again this year. The intersection’s history reflects ideas of what Winnipeg has been, what it is, and what it could be.
